According to Nick Moyle of The San Antonio Express-News, San Antonio Spurs guard/forward Jeremy Sochan (ankle) was cleared to resume basketball activities and is currently training with the Polish national team ahead of the Olympic Qualifying Tournament. The 2022 No. 9 overall pick had a decent sophomore season, averaging 11.6 points, 6.4 rebounds, and 3.4 assists. However, he was limited to 74 games because of ankle surgery. Sochan has several areas that need to be addressed, with his three-point shooting being one of them. But his usage rate could improve if he remains a primary ball-handler, and his involvement in the offense could increase if the Spurs move on from Keldon Johnson this offseason.
San Antonio Spurs forward Jeremy Sochan (ankle) is officially done for the rest of the season. The organization announced on Monday that Sochan will undergo arthroscopic surgery. This is a tough blow after Sochan suffered the injury during Friday's game. Cedi Osman started in his place on Sunday and figures to continue playing with the starting unit the rest of the way. Sochan fell out of the starting point guard role early in the season but still put together a decent campaign. He'll be worth a look as a late-round option heading into next season.
San Antonio Spurs guard/forward Jeremy Sochan (ankle) will miss Sunday's game against the Warriors. Due to an ankle problem, he was limited to only 17 minutes against the Knicks on Friday, and the Injury will keep him out of the lineup on Sunday. Sochan's absence should guarantee extra work for Cedi Osman, with Sandro Mamukelashvili possibly getting a chance to impress as well, particularly with Keldon Johnson (foot) also missing from the selection.
San Antonio Spurs guard/forward Jeremy Sochan (groin) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Thunder. The versatile youngster is troubled by right adductor tightness and will sit out his first contest of the season if he can't play on Tuesday night. Sochan's start of the season has been full of mixed performances, but his overall numbers have been solid, with the 20-year-old averaging 10.5 points, 5.4 rebounds, 4.5 assists, and 1.0 steals as the team's new starting point guard. We should see Tre Jones (hamstring) with the starters again on Tuesday if Sochan is out, although he's also carrying a questionable tag ahead of the game. Devonte' Graham is the third point guard on the depth chart, but he's featured just once this season so far, and it's unclear what the team's plans are with him.
San Antonio Spurs forward Jeremy Sochan had a productive outing in Friday's win over the Golden State Warriors. The sophomore finished with just seven points, going 2-for-8 from the field. However, he made up for it by amassing 11 rebounds and six assists. The 20-year-old completed his rookie campaign by averaging 11.0 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 2.5 assists. Sochan will have a tough time being a routine scorer for the Spurs this season, considering the team has Victor Wembanyama, Devin Vassell, and Keldon Johnson. Yet, he's expected to get minutes at the point, which isn't good news for Tre Jones, so there's room for growth in other statistical categories
San Antonio Spurs power forward Jeremy Sochan will begin the 2023-24 season as the team's starting point guard. The Spurs have tested him out in the role during the preseason, and head coach Gregg Popovich has now confirmed his starting unit for opening night, with Sochan in it along with Devin Vassell, Keldon Johnson, Zach Collins, and, of course, Victor Wembanyama. Sochan proved himself as a very versatile player during his rookie campaign last season, and it will be interesting to see how he does in his new role. In preseason, the 20-year-old has tallied 9.7 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 2.3 assists in 24 minutes per game.
San Antonio Spurs forward Jeremy Sochan started at point guard in Friday's preseason win over Miami. He played well, finishing with 10 points off 4-for-10 shooting from the field, adding six rebounds, three assists, and a steal. The 20-year-old completed his rookie season by averaging 11.0 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 2.5 assists in 53 games. He'll have some competition for minutes throughout the 2023-24 campaign, and his three-point shooting needs to improve. However, Sochan should get more than enough work to remain relevant for fantasy managers, with his usage percentage likely to increase if he continues to spend time at the one.
San Antonio Spurs forward Jeremy Sochan (soreness) will not be suiting up for the team's preseason opener along with Keldon Johnson due to what's being called "general soreness." The rest of the team will be available. Sochan looks to take on an expanded role after posting a solid rookie season where he played a multitude of roles throughout the year. He ended with averages of 11.0 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 2.5 assists per game while appearing in 56 contests and starting in 53 of them. Sochan could be a mid-to-late-round sleeper, especially at the power forward spot.
Gregg Popovich Praises Jeremy Sochan's Versatility
San Antonio Spurs power forward Jeremy Sochan had a productive rookie campaign in the NBA last season, and his role on the team should only continue to grow, with head coach Gregg Popovich valuing him and his versatility very highly. "He can play one through four," Popovich said. "And depending on circumstances who we're playing, injuries I could see him going to the five and us playing small. He's like a utility infielder in baseball; maybe they don't have that anymore. The sky's the limit for him. He's so competitive. He handles the ball. He's one of our best passers." Popovich added that Sochan plays a very important role for the Spurs in creating pace. The 20-year-old tallied 11.0 points in 26.0 minutes last season and collected 5.3 rebounds and 2.5 assists. He plays a vital part in Popovich's plans and looks poised for an even bigger year in 2023-24.
Jeremy Sochan Believes Spurs Will Be "Scary" With Victor Wembanyama
San Antonio Spurs power forward Jeremy Sochan believes the team will take a huge step forward with No. 1 draft pick Victor Wembanyama in the lineup. "I think it's going to be scary," Sochan told Bryan Kalbrosky of For The Win. "Defensively, it's going to be hard to score against us. We are long. We're pesky. Offensively, I'm going to be able to find him, and I think the beautiful thing about it is whoever gets the board, just push it. There is no need to pause after getting the defensive board. The way we want to play is: Whoever gets it, you run. You dribble the ball up. It's going to make everything so much easier. It's going to make it flow more. I think the potential on both sides is endless." The team's overall improvement should also boost the players' productivity. Sochan will be hoping to enjoy a strong sophomore campaign after posting 11.0 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 2.5 assists last term.
