Spurs Let Jeremy Sochan’s Extension Deadline Lapse

The decision puts his next contract on San Antonio’s choice to extend a qualifying offer.

Overview

  • The Oct. 20 rookie‑extension window closed without a deal for the 2022 No. 9 pick.
  • The move came days after San Antonio exercised team options on Victor Wembanyama and Stephon Castle’s rookie contracts.
  • If the Spurs issue a qualifying offer before June 2026, Sochan would be a restricted free agent next summer; without one, he would be unrestricted.
  • He is expected to miss at least the season opener with a mild wrist sprain as he works back from a summer calf strain.
  • Sochan has averaged 11.4 points, 6.1 rebounds and 2.8 assists over three seasons and spent the offseason refining his shooting mechanics, while several 2022 classmates also went unsigned.
