Stephon Castle Beats the Migraine Allegations, Cleared for Saturday
Underdog NBA reported Castle's availability on Saturday.
guard Stephon Castle has officially beaten the migraine allegations and is listed as available to play on Saturday.
Underdog NBA reported the update late Saturday, meaning anyone sweating out their weekend fantasy lineups or looking at Spurs player props can finally exhale. Castle is good to go.
Honestly, a migraine feels like a light day at the office for Castle at this point. If you look at his recent medical chart, it reads like a guy who just survived a medieval gauntlet rather than a standard NBA schedule.
Just in the last few months, the rookie has popped up on the injury report for a foot issue, an eye injury, a muscle problem, an adductor strain against the Oklahoma City Thunder, a hand injury guarding Deni Avdija, and a scary pelvic contusion after a hard fall against the .
The fact that he is simply dealing with a headache is practically a clean bill of health. The desperately need his defensive discipline and backcourt depth, especially since their rotation looks entirely different when he is forced to sit.
Castle will suit up for Saturday's tip-off. Just keep an eye on the pregame warmups, because given his recent luck, we are only one rogue basketball bounce away from him being listed out with a bruised aura.
