🎥 Film: Castle’s career high 14 assists against the Sixers

In the San Antonio Spurs’ Friday victory over the shorthanded Philadelphia 76ers, Castle finished with a new career high 14 assists that created 36 points for his teammates. Over half the Spurs’ threes were attempted wide open (51%), and the Spurs made 10-of-20 wide open 3s. As you’ll see in the videos, Castle helped create multiple wide open threes for his teammates in the game.

I broke down film of each of Castle’s assists through 4 different actions on offense - dribble hand-offs, drive-and-kicks, pick-and-rolls, and other actions.
