Productive in Thursday's win
Castle provided 16 points (4-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 7-10 FT), six rebounds, eight assists and two steals in 38 minutes during Thursday's 126-109 victory over Utah.
Analysis
It's the third time in the last six games that the second-year guard has scored in double digits while recording at least six boards and six assists. Castle's shot volume has slipped a bit since Victor Wembanyama has rejoined the Spurs' starting five, but the guard is still finding ways to be productive. Through 12 contests in January, Castle's averaging 14.9 points, 7.2 assists, 5.3 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 1.2 threes despite shooting just 36.9 percent on the month.

Adds 18 points in win
Castle closed Monday's 123-110 victory over Utah with 18 points (5-9 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 7-10 FT), two rebounds, eight assists and one block across 31 minutes.
Analysis
Castle was efficient from the field in this one and got to the charity stripe with ease, which is how he managed to score 18 points despite attempting only nine shots from the field. He's averaging 7.8 free-throw attempts over his last five appearances, so he's been noticeably more aggressive in driving to the hoop. Castle has also excelled at distributing the basketball over this five-game period, during which he has averaged 8.0 assists in 31.2 minutes per matchup.
