SAN ANTONIO<\/strong> \u2013 A San Antonio Spurs dance team tied to decades of nostalgia is expected to return to the Frost Bank Center\u2019s hardwood for the upcoming 2026-2027 NBA season.<\/p>\n

Spurs Sports & Entertainment (SSE) announced the Silver Dancers will join the Hype Squad to expand its in-game entertainment lineup, the team said in a news release.<\/p>\n

Originally established in 1991, the Silver Dancers are an all-women\u2019s dance team that entertained fans and cheered for all five Spurs championships.<\/p>\n

The Silver Dancers were discontinued<\/a> by SSE in 2018, citing “lack of fan interest<\/a>,” and replaced by the current Hype Squad, a co-ed group made up of dancers, break dancers, tumblers and stunters.<\/p>\n

The release stated the Silver Dancers will perform at select Spurs home games and community events throughout the season.<\/p>\n
