Wembanyama`s injury ends his season, impacting Spurs` performance as rookie Castle shines with 32 points.

Victor Wembanyama`s season has come to an abrupt end due to a blood clot in his shoulder, a significant blow for the San Antonio Spurs. His absence was felt during the recent game against the Oklahoma City Thunder, where the Spurs fell 146-132. Wembanyama had been a standout performer, averaging 24.3 points per game before his injury, making his loss even more impactful as the team struggles to find its footing.

In the wake of Wembanyama`s injury, rookie Stephon Castle has stepped up remarkably. Castle scored 32 points in the game against the Thunder, becoming the fifth rookie in Spurs history to achieve multiple 30-point games in a season. He joins the ranks of Spurs legends like Tim Duncan, David Robinson, and Willie Anderson, showcasing his potential as a future star for the franchise.

Despite Castle`s impressive performance, the Spurs have faced challenges, losing five of their last six games. The team is now in a critical phase as they adjust to life without their top player, looking to regroup and find a way to compete effectively in the absence of Wembanyama. The road ahead will be tough, but the Spurs are determined to rise to the occasion.
