The San Antonio Spurs may already have the NBA’s next death lineup

The San Antonio Spurs may already have the NBA’s next death lineup, but whether Mitch Johnson can actually unleash it comes down to one thing: spacing. In this video we break down why pairing De’Aaron Fox, Dylan Harper, Stephon Castle, Carter Bryant, and Victor Wembanyama could become San Antonio’s most destructive closing unit, what each player must improve for it to actually work, and the difficult decision Johnson may eventually face about leaving Devin Vassell out of the closing five. We cover the defensive upside, the offensive spacing problem, and why Carter Bryant might be the quiet swing player who determines whether this lineup ever reaches the floor.

  1. VERY NICE LINEUP , I keep drooling thinking about a lineup deep in the season of …. Harper , Castle , Bryant, JQ , Wemby … Oooh my….GO SPURS GO 📣

  4. Please, 4-1 gentlemen's sweep.. You are wayyy early for this nonsense.. Start with your man Mitch, dude needs to actually coach.. He got played like a guitar by Brown.. Losing by one being up 29 in the third..lolololol. Drill that… Brunson giving you 45 to send Wemby back to France for vacay.. Scrimmage that too.

  6. Spurs has now 2 teams deep the target is 3 teams deep.. 1st – Fox, Castle, Vassel, Champegnie, Wemby. 2nd,- Harper, Carter, Barnes, Harris, Kornet. We need rest the regular season, so they won’t be tired deep in the playoffs, our playoff series reached game 6 and 7 while New York sweep their way to East.

  8. If healthy this would actually be the Spurs (DEFENSIVE) death lineup :
    PG – Castle
    SG -Vassell
    SF – Carter Bryant
    PF – Jaden Quintance
    C – Victor Wembanyama

  9. Bottom line is if Castle and Harper get greedy when it is time for their extensions, then the Saint Anthony Spurs will not be able to keep Wemby-Castle-Harper for years to come.
