There are two very simple things to know about this year’s Spurs team.
First, they are very, very young. Victor Wembanyama, the anchor of the team on both ends of the floor, is in just the third year of his NBA career and well ahead of schedule. Guard De’Aaron Fox, playing in his ninth NBA season, is the elder statesman of the team’s core, with Stephon Castle (two seasons), Julian Champagnie (four seasons), and Devin Vassell (six seasons) filling out the rest of the starting five.
