H-E-B’s Latest Spurs Spots Tout Beef, Pet Lines

H-E-B has kicked off its latest round of popular television commercials featuring the San Antonio Spurs in tandem with the start of the 2016-17 NBA season.

The new spots, which include performances provided by both current and former Spurs players, showcase products like H-E-B Prime 1 Beef and H-E-B Texas Pets with a star-studded cast, including: LaMarcus Aldridge, Manu Ginobili, Danny Green, Kawhi Leonard, Patty Mills, Tony Parker, the squad's newest big man, Pau Gasol and a few familiar faces from seasons prior.

New this year, H-E-B brought back Spurs Legends for a special commercial shoot. A true testament to San Antonio's enduring admiration of former Spurs players, H-E-B called George Gervin, Sean Elliott, Bruce Bowen, David Robinson and Tim Duncan out of retirement to lend acting expertise to the anticipated advertisements.

Six commercials will debut during the broadcasts of this week's games on FOX Sports Southwest; three on Thursday, Oct. 27 when the Spurs visit the Sacramento Kings with a 9:30 p.m. CT start and three during the season's home opener on Saturday, Oct. 29 when the Spurs tip-off against the New Orleans Pelicans at 7 p.m.

The first three commercials will be live on heb.com/spurs  following the game on Oct. 27, where fans can also vote for their favorite spot immediately following the game on Oct. 29, when all six commercials will be available to view.

This continued collaboration between H-E-B and Spurs Sports & Entertainment has led to community investment projects and provided Spurs fans and H-E-B customers with player appearances and fan appreciation events throughout the year.

With sales of more than $23 billion, the San Antonio-based H-E-B operates more than 380 stores in Texas and Mexico and employs more than 96,000 partners serving millions of customers in more than 300 communities.
