Spurs’ Stephon Castle, No. 4 Draft Pick, Out for NBA Summer League with brutal Injury

The San Antonio Spurs have decided to shut down Stephon Castle for the remainder of the 2024 NBA Summer League as a precautionary measure after he sprained his right wrist during a game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Although the injury is considered minor, the Spurs are being cautious with their first-round pick.

Castle, who had been impressive in his Summer League appearances, scored 22 points in his last game before the injury. The decision highlights the team’s careful approach to player development, especially given Castle’s potential as one of the top young talents on the roster.
