Julian Champagnie News: Shoots well in preseason finale

Champagnie tallied 15 points (5-6 FG, 5-6 3Pt), three rebounds and one block over 23 minutes during Friday's 133-104 preseason win over the Pacers.

Champagnie led both teams with five three-pointers, and he finished tied with Luke Kornet for third most points on the Spurs behind Victor Wembanyama (17) and Stephon Castle (16). Champagnie connected on 37.1 percent of his three-point attempts during the 2024-25 regular season, but the fourth-year wing has gone 15-for-23 on three-point attempts over the Spurs' last four preseason games. He started in each of San Antonio's five exhibition contests and could start in Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Mavericks if De'Aaron Fox (hamstring) is unable to play.
