Stephon Castle Sparks Into Life in Monday's Win
San Antonio Spurs guard Stephon Castle contributed 23 points as the team beat the New York Knicks 115-111 in Game 3 of the NBA Finals on Monday. The 21-year-old sophomore also had five rebounds, five assists, one steal, and one block, going 8-for-15 from the field with a 2-for-5 effort from deep. After being quiet in the first two games of the Finals, Castle made a big impact on both ends. San Antonio's postseason success has often been linked to Castle's performance. His scoring efficiency has been more consistent, averaging 19.8 points in San Antonio's wins versus 17.3 points in losses. Through the first three games of the Finals, Castle has posted averages of 18.0 points, 5.7 rebounds, and 4.0 assists.

Dylan Harper Remains a Bright Spot for San Antonio
San Antonio Spurs rookie guard Dylan Harper supplied a spark off the bench in Friday's 105-104 Game 2 loss to the New York Knicks, finishing with 15 points, six rebounds, three assists, and one steal. The No. 2 pick in the 2025 draft scored efficiently inside, going 6-for-12 from the field and 3-for-4 at the line while missing all three of his triples. He was one of the few bright spots in the defeat, posting a team-high plus-12 despite the 2-0 series hole. Harper's bench role behind De'Aaron Fox caps his ceiling, but the efficient scoring and rotation minutes keep him a usable DFS option for Monday's Game 3.

De'Aaron Fox Shoots Well in a Loss to the Knicks
San Antonio Spurs guard De'Aaron Fox recorded 20 points, five assists, three rebounds, one steal, and one block in Friday's 105-104 Game 2 loss to the New York Knicks. The former Kentucky Wildcat shot a highly efficient 8-for-12 from the field, including 2-for-2 from three-point range. Despite his scoring touch, Fox struggled with ball security, committing four turnovers. His performance wasn't enough to prevent San Antonio from falling into a 2-0 hole in the NBA Finals. The veteran point guard remains a crucial offensive engine next to Victor Wembanyama and will need to maintain his aggression as the series shifts to Madison Square Garden.

De'Aaron Fox Struggles Again Wednesday Night
San Antonio Spurs point guard De'Aaron Fox managed only seven points as the team was defeated by the New York Knicks 105-95 in Game 1 of the NBA Finals on Wednesday. He was the Spurs' lowest-scoring starter, going 3-for-13 from the field and 0-for-4 from three-point range. Across 38 minutes of action, Fox also tallied four rebounds, five assists, and one steal. The two-time All-Star has now finished three of the last four games with single-digit points. He's been hampered by an ankle injury in the playoffs and hasn't shown the sharpness we usually expect from the explosive guard.

Dylan Harper Turns Heads in Finals Opener
San Antonio Spurs guard Dylan Harper molded a hot start into a 16-point, eight-rebound effort in his NBA Finals debut on Wednesday against the New York Knicks. With Harper on fire, the Spurs dominated early, but they struggled in the second half and lost the series opener 105-95. Harper, who finished 6-for-10 from the floor, also had one assist and one steal. The 20-year-old rookie impressed with his maturity and wasn't fazed by the occasion. You could say he was San Antonio's best player, as many of Harper's teammates failed to meet their usual standards. After a slump midway through the Western Conference Finals, Harper has come back strong. He's gone 62.9% from the field over the last three games, averaging 15.3 points, 7.0 rebounds, and 2.7 assists.

Stephon Castle Close to Double-Double in Game 1 Loss to Knicks
San Antonio Spurs guard Stephon Castle finished a 105-95 loss to the New York Knicks in Wednesday's Finals opener with 17 points, eight rebounds, and three assists. This was his first outing in eight games without any defensive stats. San Antonio struggled to score consistently in Game 1, and it also impacted Castle, who was 7-for-16 from the field and 1-for-5 from behind the arc. With the team desperate to avoid a 2-0 series deficit on home court Friday night, Castle should be determined to make a bigger impact. The 2025 Rookie of the Year has averaged 19.1 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 6.5 assists during his first postseason campaign.

Stephon Castle Continues Postseason Run with 16 Points
San Antonio Spurs guard Stephon Castle recorded 16 points, six rebounds, six assists, and one steal in Saturday's Game 7 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder. The 21-year-old was instrumental in securing the team's first Finals appearance since 2014, going 7-for-15 from the field and 2-for-3 at the charity stripe. Castle's offense sparked a crucial fourth-quarter run, giving San Antonio a needed lift after Victor Wembanyama went to the bench with foul trouble. He has been a consistent contributor during this postseason, averaging 19.4 points, 6.7 assists, and 4.9 rebounds per game. The second-year guard will remain an appealing fantasy asset when the Spurs tip off against the New York Knicks in the championship series beginning Wednesday.

De'Aaron Fox Provides Secondary Punch in Game 7 Triumph
San Antonio Spurs guard De'Aaron Fox recorded 15 points, five assists, and three steals in Saturday's 111-103 Game 7 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder. The victory sent the Spurs to their first NBA Finals since 2014. The former Kings guard shot 6-for-12 from the field and knocked down three 3-pointers, a clean bounce-back from his 1-for-9 night in Game 6. He has played through a sprained right ankle for much of the series, yet his points-assists-steals mix gives San Antonio a reliable secondary creator behind Victor Wembanyama, and a healthier ankle would only sharpen that value against the New York Knicks.

De'Aaron Fox Struggles From the Field Thursday
San Antonio Spurs guard De'Aaron Fox was limited to five points, five rebounds, and seven assists in Thursday's 118-91 Game 6 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder. He shot 1-for-9 from the field and missed all three attempts from deep, but San Antonio still forced Game 7 behind a 20-0 third-quarter run and a 52-42 rebounding edge. Fox has not looked fully settled as a scorer in this series, yet the playmaking volume remains useful while the Spurs lean on Victor Wembanyama and their younger guards to carry more of the offense. Fox's fantasy line will need better efficiency to match his usual ceiling in Saturday's elimination game.

Stephon Castle Controls the Spurs Offense in Game 6 Win
San Antonio Spurs guard Stephon Castle racked up 17 points (5-for-10 FGs, 7-for-8 FTs), nine assists, five rebounds, one steal, and just one turnover in Thursday's 118-91 Game 6 win over the Thunder. The reigning Rookie of the Year notched his eighth 15/5/5 game of the postseason, behind only Magic Johnson and Larry Bird among rookies and sophomores in a single playoff run. The bigger development is the ball security: Castle had 20 turnovers across the series' first two games before settling down. That control, layered on his scoring and playmaking, is what gives him a dependable multi-category floor the rest of this run.

Dylan Harper Finds His Rhythm Thursday
San Antonio Spurs guard Dylan Harper recorded 18 points, six rebounds, four assists, and two three-pointers in Thursday's 118-91 Game 6 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder. The 20-year-old rookie shot 6-for-9 from the field and 4-for-4 at the free-throw line while helping San Antonio force Game 7. After averaging only 6.0 points over the previous three games, Harper delivered a timely response in an elimination spot. He still works off the bench, but the efficient scoring and secondary playmaking keep him firmly involved in San Antonio's postseason rotation.

De'Aaron Fox Limited to Nine Points in Game 5 Loss
San Antonio Spurs point guard De'Aaron Fox had a miserable time in Game 5 against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Tuesday, finishing a 127-114 loss with nine points on a 4-for-15 effort from the field. He missed all four attempts from three-point range. While he struggled to score, Fox did a good job in other areas, tallying four rebounds, nine assists, and three steals with only one turnover in 33 minutes. Fox is playing through an ankle injury in the playoffs, which could be why he has made only 32.1% of his field-goal attempts over the last two games. An improvement from Fox would significantly boost San Antonio's chances in Thursday's elimination game.

Victor Wembanyama carried the scoring load with 33 points, but Castle's full line mattered in a 103-82 win that tied the Western Conference Finals at 2-2. His assists and defensive stats continue to give him a useful playoff floor even when he is not a primary scoring option.

Fox has now logged two full outings since returning from his ankle issue, and while the scoring ceiling has been muted, his rebounds, assists, and defensive stats are keeping his fantasy profile useful in playoff formats.
