Watch: Spurs show off diversity, make origami in new H-E-B commercials
The boys are back.
Texas grocery store chain H-E-B dropped a series of new commercials Thursday night featuring the San Antonio Spurs, continuing a longstanding and, frankly, amazing tradition.
The best of the bunch features the Spurs making origami. All-Star Kawhi Leonard shines with his take on the ancient art form, as well as a once-rare but increasingly common display of his pearly whites.

In another spot, the Spurs play up their diversity as players show off fruits and vegetables from their home countries at a farmers market. Danny Green's joke is met with crickets, while Leonard and Frenchman Tony Parker will probably make you laugh.

Tim Duncan's gone, which is just as weird in these commercials as it is on the court. His absence does, however, pave the way for Pau Gasol's H-E-B debut. Here he is speaking Spanish with Manu Ginobili, whose barbecue inspires Green and Patty Mills to join them.
Learning Spanish has never been so easy (with a little help from some @spurs players, of course) as in our new commercial. #GoSpursGo pic.twitter.com/kaQ9fSXvJo
