Spurs' Stephon Castle: Matches season high in victory
Castle ended Tuesday's 128-115 victory over Utah with 23 points (9-20 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 2-4 FT), three rebounds, five assists and one block in 29 minutes.
The backcourt combination of Castle and Chris Paul is reaping benefits for the Spurs, as there is plenty of opportunity for both players to benefit. The 2024 first-round pick has made an immediate contribution and is a key piece responsible for the Spurs' surprising 10-8 record. The UConn product is expected to remain with the first unit for the foreseeable future.

Spurs' Stephon Castle: Stuffs stat sheet Saturday
Castle contributed 19 points (7-15 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, three assists and one steal in 33 minutes during Saturday's 104-94 victory over the Warriors.
Castle has settled in well as a starter, and his streak of games with at least 10 points has now reached nine appearances. The rookie forms an excellent backcourt tandem with Chris Paul, and all signs point to the rookie continuing to flourish as a starter with a rebuilding San Antonio team. Castle is averaging 14.3 points and 4.5 assists per game since being promoted to a starting gig 10 games ago.

Spurs' Stephon Castle: Continues to flourish
Castle closed Thursday's 126-118 victory over Utah with 18 points (6-14 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three rebounds, six assists, one block and one steal across 34 minutes.
Castle was San Antonio's second-leading scorer during Thursday's victory over the Jazz. Since moving to the starting lineup, the rookie guard is averaging 13.8 points, 4.7 assists, 2.7 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 30.3 minutes across his last nine appearances. However, Castle is somewhat struggling with his efficiency, as he is shooting just 42.2 percent from the field over that span.

Spurs' Stephon Castle: Scores 22 points Friday
Castle tallied 22 points (7-12 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 5-8 FT), five assists and two rebounds over 33 minutes in Friday's 120-115 loss to the Lakers.
Despite Devin Vassell being back in the fold, Castle made his sixth straight start Friday and was one point shy from tying a career high he set against the Jazz on Nov. 9. Castle finished Friday's game as the Spurs' second-leading scorer behind Victor Wembanyama (28), with the former connecting on three three-pointers for the second time this season. Across his six starts, Castle has averaged 14.0 points, 4.2 assists, 2.3 rebounds and 1.0 steals over 29.4 minutes per game.

Spurs' Stephon Castle: Best scoring output of young career
Castle supplied 23 points (8-16 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 4-5 FT), two rebounds, three assists and two steals over 35 minutes during Saturday's 111-110 loss to the Jazz.
Saturday marked a second consecutive strong performance by the rookie, who appears destined to return to a bench role as early as Monday against the Kings following a strong season debut by Devin Vassell. Castle has started three straight games for the Spurs in Jeremy Sochan's (thumb) absence and is averaging 14.0 points, 2.3 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.7 steals during this brief stretch.

Spurs' Stephon Castle: Efficient in victory
Castle closed with 14 points (6-11 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six assists and three rebounds over 25 minutes during Thursday's 118-105 win over the Trail Blazers.
With Jeremy Sochan (thumb) out, the rookie started his second consecutive game, during which he set a season high in points and assists. The 20-year-old could remain in the starting five until Devin Vassell (foot) is back to full playing form, though even off the bench Castle is set to receive fairly significant minutes. The No. 4 overall pick of the 2024 Draft has averaged 6.8 points, 2.6 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 0.8 steals across 21.1 minutes through nine regular-season games.

Spurs' Stephon Castle: Making first career start
Castle is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game versus Houston, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.

Spurs' Stephon Castle: Drops career high in loss
Castle put up 11 points (4-10 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, an assist and a block over 20 minutes in Monday's 113-104 loss to the Clippers.
Castle started the second half of Monday's game against the Clippers in place of Jeremy Sochan (thumb), which paved the way for him to reach double digits in points for the first time in his young career. With Sochan out for an extended period, Castle will likely see an increased role moving forward.

Spurs' Stephon Castle: Limited off bench again
Castle contributed three points (1-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 0-2 FT) and three rebounds in 15 minutes during Saturday's 113-103 win over the Timberwolves.
Castle was used sparingly once again Saturday, continuing his underwhelming season. Although he was highly touted coming out of the draft, it appears he will have to bide his time, playing limited minutes off the bench. He is certainly a candidate to be thrust into a larger role if and when San Antonio is eliminated from playoff contention. Until then, it's hard to see him playing more than about 15 minutes per night.

Spurs' Stephon Castle: Fails to score in 20 minutes
Castle posted zero points (0-5 FG, 0-3 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one block over 20 minutes during Wednesday's 105-93 loss to Oklahoma City.
Castle was a no-show in the loss, missing all five of his shot attempts. It's been an underwhelming start to his NBA career, averaging just 5.0 points and 3.5 assists in 20.7 minutes per game. While he could be someone the Spurs lean into a little more as the season progresses, there is no point holding him now given his current role.

Spurs' Stephon Castle: Coming off bench Thursday
Castle will come off the bench in Thursday's regular-season opener versus the Mavericks, Jeff McDonald of the San Antonio Express-News reports.
Castle did not enter the starting five during the preseason, so it does not come as a shock that the rookie will be part of the bench unit. The 19-year-old will back up Chris Paul and Julian Champagnie in the backcourt, though Castle will likely receive significant minutes in his first NBA game coming off the bench.

Spurs' Stephon Castle: Scores team-high 16 points
Castle finished with 16 points (6-14 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, three assists and two steals across 24 minutes off the bench in Thursday's 129-107 preseason loss to the Rockets.
Castle led the Spurs in points and was a disruptive presence on both ends of the court. The fact that he also led the team in minutes played is an encouraging sign of his role in the rotation. He's not likely to open the regular season as a starter, but he should see decent minutes off the bench at both guard spots.
