The Spurs were originally scheduled to play two games against the Minnesota Timberwolves overseas in Tokyo, Japan in November during the first month of the regular season, but because they won the NBA championship, they were obligated to play in the McDonald's Championship in Milan, Italy in October.^[11][12][13]

The Spurs won 14 of their first 17 games, including a seven-game winning streak,^[14] and held a 32–17 record at the All-Star break.^[15] At mid-season, Brown was released to free agency and re-signed with the Charlotte Hornets. On March 14, 2000, Elliott returned to the team in a 94–79 home win over the Atlanta Hawks, and played in the final 19 games of the season.^[16][17][18] The Spurs finished in second place in the Midwest Division with a 53–29 record, and earned the fourth seed in the Western Conference.^[19]

Tim Duncan averaged 23.2 points, 12.4 rebounds and 2.2 blocks per game, and was named to the All-NBA First Team, and to the NBA All-Defensive First Team, while David Robinson averaged 17.8 points, 9.6 rebounds and 2.3 blocks per game, and was selected to the All-NBA Third Team. In addition, Avery Johnson provided the team with 11.2 points and 6.0 assists per game, while Porter contributed 9.4 points per game off the bench, and Mario Elie provided with 7.5 points per game. Meanwhile, also off the bench, Malik Rose averaged 6.7 points and 4.5 rebounds per game, and three-point specialist Jaren Jackson contributed 6.3 points per game, and led the Spurs with 108 three-point field goals.^[20]

Duncan and Robinson were both selected for the 2000 NBA All-Star Game in Oakland, California,^[21][22][23] where Duncan, and Shaquille O'Neal of the Los Angeles Lakers both shared the NBA All-Star Game Most Valuable Player award.^[24][25][26] Duncan also finished in fifth place in Most Valuable Player voting,^[27][28][29] and Elliott finished tied in eleventh place in Most Improved Player voting.^[29]

However, shortly before the regular season ended, Duncan suffered a knee injury;^[30][31][32] without Duncan, the Spurs were eliminated in the Western Conference First Round of the 2000 NBA playoffs by the 5th-seeded Phoenix Suns in four games.^[33][34][35] Following the season, Elie signed as a free agent with the Phoenix Suns,^[36][37][38] and Jerome Kersey signed with the Milwaukee Bucks during the next season.^[39]
