What was Castle doing there?
That looked like a wide open lay up he just volley ball spiked off the glass?

Mitch needs to move on from castle-Harper-keldon-Luke lineups
It’s time to switch it up.
I understand that they’re going to be ups and downs throughout a long regular season, but I have yet to be wowed by the Spurs this season. Their schedule has been very, very easy.
They shouldn’t be this bad in the non Wemby minutes. Here’s what I would do
1. Reed>Kornet is coming soon if things don’t change
2. Harper-castle-Kornet lineups are not good enough offensively especially when you have keldon spaced in the corner. He’s avging 1 3pta. I would go with Fox-Harper/castle-julian-keldon-luke
3. To piggy back on 2, I think Harris coming back can help if you slide him in place of keldon. He should be more dynamic.
Fox-Castle/Harper-Julian-Harris-Reed is what I would do in non Wemby minutes. Throw Barnes or Bryant in there on the nights that they have it going.

That was a great 1q by the spurs
PHX hit ALOT of pull up jumpers that you have to concede. You’ll live with those
Fox and Wemby look fantastic

Why the 3 guard lineup is working:
Replacing Champagnie with Harper is a big upgrade defensively.
And while the spacing around him isn’t perfect, the playmaking is. Everyone on the court can get into the paint and hit him for a lob dunk. Everyone can grab n go in transition.
This has allowed Wemby to do less dribbling/playmaking and focus on play finishing off the ball. It’s why his turnovers are down and dunks are way up.
Great break down.
If they can keep getting castle on the move in the middle of the court, setting screens and making quick decisions, they’re gonna keep breaking these coverages.
I imagine Julian starts and Bryant should get another opportunity.
PHX always seems to play us tough the last couple of years. Excited to see them play tonight and intrigued at Maluach vs Wemby
Spurs have ruled Vassell (adductor tightness) out for tonight after listing him as questionable in yesterday’s injury report.

Really great article.
i wrote about san antonio's 3-guard starting lineup, which i love.
how it's working, why skepticism is understandable, and what it means for (arguably) the best team in the league: theringer.com/2026/11/09/nba…
