NBA – After 9 games, a teammate of Wembanyama already unhappy? ” I do not want…

While the Spurs are having a tricky start to the season from an accounting point of view, Gregg Popovich’s decisions are not all unanimous. This is the case for example with Jeremy Sochan. San Antonio’s new playmaker is in full doubt in Texas.

A true phenomenon upon his arrival in the NBA, Victor Wembanyama has changed a lot of things at Spurs since his arrival, sometimes without wanting to. Media attention is heavy, while Gregg Popovich’s rotation has been changed. Wemby holder, Jeremy Sochan was placed as playmaker by the coach. A completely new position for number 10.

Spurs player unhappy with his role

We saw some good things against the Wolves regarding Sochan, who showed some potential in this leadership role. But that hasn’t always been the case this season. In comments reported by journalist Jeff McDonald, the person concerned confirms having enormous doubts about his ability to evolve in this role in the long term.

Jeremy Sochan on Popovich playing point guard: “There are moments sometimes where we’re like, ‘Yo, I don’t want to,’ we’re like, ‘I don’t want to do that,’ it’s the first time my life I play point guard.”

Is Sochan the perfect player for the lead? Probably not, but Popovich remains convinced that he has the ability to dictate the game. An important position in San Antonio, in particular to find Wembanyama more easily in the paint. Suffice to say that the responsibility is enormous.

Despite his reluctance, Sochan continues to evolve as a leader, with the hope that his situation will improve over time. We saw some interesting things against the Wolves, even if it will be necessary to confirm over time.

Sochan: “I’ll be honest, there are times when I have absolutely no confidence. Then there are times when I am. »

Popovich does not intend to change his plans immediately, even if Tre Jones showed good things as leader, sometimes with great ease in finding Wemby via lobs. Sochan remains the potential starter, but everything can go very quickly in the NBA.

Jeremy Sochan makes no secret of it: he is not happy with his role at Spurs. The point guard position is not for him, even if Gregg Popovich seems to think otherwise. We hope for signs of improvement in the coming weeks.
