The 2025 NBA Rookie of the Year award went to San Antonio Spurs guard Stephon Castle, marking the second consecutive year a Silver and Black player received it after Victor Wembanyama’s stellar 2023-24 season.
Castle averaged 14.7 points on 42.8/28.5/72.4 percent shooting splits. He also averaged 3.7 rebounds and 4.1 assists through 81 games played. He started in 47 games this season.
Castle’s win also marks the fourth time that a Spurs rookie was given the NBA Rookie of the Year award. David Robinson was the first, bringing it home in 1990. He was followed by Tim Duncan in 1998.
