Spurs' Jeremy Sochan: Strong production not enough
Rotowire
Sochan provided 19 points (6-15 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five rebounds and seven assists over 32 minutes during Wednesday's 109-102 loss to the Clippers.
The experiment with Sochan at point guard hasn't been successful to this point, but performances like this show a glimpse of what he's capable of in that role. At 6-foot-8, Sochan should be an efficient scorer against smaller guards in the paint, but that just hasn't been the case yet, as he's shooting only 42.7 percent from the field despite a career-high 37.5 percent mark from deep. The rebuilding Spurs should continue to give Sochan opportunities to flourish, so fantasy managers shouldn't be too discouraged by the inconsistent start.

Sochan supplied 14 points (6-11 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, five assists and three steals in 30 minutes during Friday's 117-110 loss to Minnesota.
The experiment of Sochan playing at point guard has drawn mixed reviews thus far, but he seems to be settling well and has notched back-to-back strong outings. He's making an impact as a playmaker as well, handing out at least five assists in six of his nine appearances. He's averaging 9.9 points, 5.4 rebounds and 4.7 assists per game.

Spurs' Jeremy Sochan: Just misses double-double
Rotowire
Sochan logged 14 points (7-13 FG), five rebounds, nine assists and one block over 26 minutes during Thursday's 132-121 win over the Suns.
The nine dimes were a season high for the second-year player, who is adapting to a move to point guard and to the presence of Victor Wembanyama in the lineup. Sochan's mark of 5.2 assists per game is more than double what he managed as a rookie, but so far, the rest of his production has been flat compared to his debut.

Spurs' Jeremy Sochan: Vanishes offensively
Rotowire
Sochan provided zero points (0-2 FG, 0-2 3Pt), four rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 22 minutes during Sunday's 123-83 loss to the Clippers. He also had four turnovers.
Sochan had scored 27 points on 21 shots in San Antonio's first two games this season, but he came crashing back to earth Sunday. The core of Sochan, Keldon Johnson, Devin Vassell and Victor Wembanyama combined for just 30 points on 37.9 percent shooting, symbolic of the volatility that comes with the Spurs' young cast.

Spurs' Jeremy Sochan: Comes close to double-double
Rotowire
Sochan recorded 13 points (4-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-6 FT), eight rebounds, five assists and one steal in 29 minutes during Wednesday's 126-119 loss to the Mavericks.
As expected, Sochan got the start at point guard, and while he struggled from the field, he posted a solid all-around stat line with decent contributions on both ends of the court. It remains to be seen how long coach Gregg Popovich will employ Sochan as a point guard, but the 20-year-old should be relevant in most formats as long as he remains a starter.

Spurs' Jeremy Sochan: Third-year option exercised
Rotowire
The Spurs exercised Sochan's third-year team option Monday, Jeff Garcia of KENS 5 San Antonio reports.
Sochan took on a prominent role in the Spurs' frontcourt as a rookie last year, averaging 11.0 points, 5.3 rebounds and 2.5 assists in 26.0 minutes per game over 56 appearances. He'll attempt to build upon his results this year, and it's unsurprising that he'll remain in San Antonio through at least the 2024-25 campaign.

Spurs' Jeremy Sochan: Stuffs stat sheet as point guard
Rotowire
Sochan racked up six points (2-5 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, four assists and a steal across 21 minutes in Wednesday's 117-103 preseason win over the Rockets.
Sochan started at point guard once again, and coach Gregg Popovich was pleased enough to name him the starting floor general for Opening Night. Sochan averaged 9.7 points, 4.7 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 2.0 steals per game in three preseason contests, and it remains to be seen how he'll handle the rigors of playing as a point forward once the regular season begins next week. However, he has the potential to become a stat-filling machine.

Spurs' Jeremy Sochan: Starting at PG this season
Rotowire
Coach Greg Popovich confirmed Wednesday that Sochan will start at point guard during the regular season, Andrew Lopez of ESPN reports.
The Spurs tested the starting lineup of Sochan, Devin Vassell, Keldon Johnson, Victor Wembanyama and Zach Collins during the preseason and will, in fact, deploy it to start the regular season. As a plus-defender playing point forward, Sochan has the ability to provide immense value across the board in eight-category leagues, assuming that he can continue to improve at the charity stripe after finishing 2022-23 at 69.8 percent. In the 17 games Sochan saw at least 30 minutes last year, he averaged 16.5 points, 7.1 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 1.5 steals/blocks.

Spurs' Jeremy Sochan: Scores 10 points as point guard
Rotowire
Sochan posted 10 points (4-10 FG, 2-3 FT), six rebounds, three assists and a steal across 25 minutes in Friday's 120-104 preseason win over the Heat.
Sochan was listed as the starting point guard, though in reality, he operated as a point forward. It's hard to say if the coaching staff was happy with the results, as the final stat line was pedestrian, but this is likely to be nothing more than a preseason experiment. Sochan should see most of his time at power forward once the season starts.

Spurs' Jeremy Sochan: Starting at point guard
Rotowire
Sochan (soreness) will start at point guard in Friday's matchup with the Heat.
Sochan was originally questionable for the exhibition contest due to soreness, but it looks like the issue is not serious. The start at point guard is interesting, as he has primarily played forward during his young career. Tre Jones is still expected to start at point this season, but Sochan could potentially get some depth point forward run if this test yields positive results.
