Gregg Popovich boarded the Spurs' flight to New York to deliver a passionate rallying cry before Game 3, per @sam_amick

Pop spent 10 minutes addressing the entire team and 20 more minutes speaking individually with players while sitting next to Wemby

Stephon Castle admits he actively avoided other teams in the 2024 NBA Draft so he could team up with Victor Wembanyama in San Antonio

“I was just looking on the defensive side of things (in San Antonio), where being able to pair with Victor was definitely a plus in my eyes.I just thought it would have been a perfect fit, and I feel like it was.”

“I think being (in San Antonio) was always number one on my list. Internally, I always felt like I was the best player in that draft. (But) I didn’t know what could happen. My agent always told me, like, anything can happen in a draft. Like, you could not work out for a team, not have talked to a team, and they can still take you. So, I mean, I wasn’t really planning on playing in Houston. I didn’t really know how any of that worked. I was kind of hoping I could slide my way to San Antonio. It kind of worked out for me.”

Wemby is averaging 29-10 in the Finals on 59% TS with 5 stocks per game. The Spurs are +10 with him on the floor and -17 with him off.

The G2 late game fiasco notwithstanding, he's putting together a nice first Finals against a team that is constructed to stress his weaknesses.

BREAKING: THE SPURS TAKE GAME 3 AT MADISON SQUARE GARDEN

[Max Kellerman @maxkellerman]

Stephon Castle is 21 years old. He just iced a must-win finals game on the road with a huge 3 with no time left on the shot clock, and followed that up by nailing both free throws to put the game out of reach.

[bray 🥽 @spursbeliever]

20 years old emptying the clip with the season on the line. I can’t explain how much I respect this statline lmao
