Julian Champagnie’s shot chart says Devin Vassell loses his job in a three-guard lineup

Air Alamo's Jahlil Williams argues that San Antonio Spurs wing Julian Champagnie should start over Devin Vassell if head coach Mitch Johnson deploys a three-guard lineup. Williams highlights that Champagnie offers more versatile perimeter spacing across multiple zones, making him a superior tactical fit alongside driving guards such as De'Aaron Fox and Dylan Harper.

While moving Vassell to the bench would relegate the team's second-highest-paid player, Williams contends it would significantly boost San Antonio's reserve scoring and perimeter volume. The writer notes the Spurs are hard-capped at the first apron, leaving minute reallocation as the most viable path to balance the roster.
