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.

Spurs' Stephon Castle: Makes presence felt Wednesday
Castle delivered 17 points (4-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 7-10 FT), two rebounds, four assists and two steals across 22 minutes off the bench in Wednesday's 107-97 preseason win over the Magic.
Castle led the Spurs in scoring and showed some interesting traits, mainly his passing ability and an underrated skill to get to the charity stripe. The Spurs have big hopes for the rookie, and he's in contention to open the season in a starting role alongside Chris Paul in the backcourt while Devin Vassell (foot) is inactive.

Spurs' Stephon Castle: Out for Summer League with wrist sprain
Castle suffered a right wrist sprain during Saturday's 83-77 win over Portland and has been ruled out for the remainder of the Las Vegas Summer League, Tom Orsborn of the San Antonio Express-News reports.
During his brief time on the court for the Spurs in Summer League, Castle flashed the potential that made him the No. 4 overall pick in the draft in June. Over two appearances in the California Classic and one in Las Vegas, Castle averaged 17.3 points, 5.7 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.3 three-pointers in 25.5 minutes while shooting 37 percent from the field. After the Spurs brought in veteran point guard Chris Paul in free agency, the 6-foot-6 Castle will likely spend most of his rookie season playing on the wing. He projects to open the season in head coach Gregg Popovich's rotation, likely as a backup to Devin Vassell (foot) or Harrison Barnes.

Spurs' Stephon Castle: Looks sharp in win
Castle recorded 22 points (8-21 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-6 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one steal over 29 minutes in Saturday's 83-77 Summer League win over the Trail Blazers.
Coming off a national championship with UConn, the 6-foot-6 guard finds himself with an exciting opportunity in San Antonio. Castle is likely to begin his career as a key reserve for the Spurs while learning from the likes of Chris Paul and Devin Vassell, though a starting spot may not be out of the question depending on how he fares during training camp.
