On the court, Julian Champagnie doesn’t stay in one spot for long. “Back cuts, chasing space — that’s where I think I make my bread and butter,” said Champagnie in an interview on Spurs media day. “Being a movement shooter. A guy who moves around, who helps his teammates get buckets. And I’m here to help with that.”
The numbers back it up: no Spur held the ball for less time on a per-possession basis than Champagnie, who has found quick success in San Antonio fitting into its offensive system with quick decisions, outside shooting, and a frame built to play multiple positions.
