The San Antonio Spurs know that they did not get the most out of their draft pick when they selected Jeremy Sochan ninth overall in the 2022 NBA Draft. As the players they passed on break out, however, their regret is only growing.

Many fans of the Spurs still believe in Jeremy Sochan and his ability to be an impact player for the team -- and he likely still has fans inside the organization as well -- but it's undeniable that his first three-plus seasons in the league have not been what was hoped for.

The idea of Sochan was an elite defender whose playmaking and athleticism would translate into a two-way force.
