Former San Antonio Spurs forward Jeremy Sochan has spoken publicly for the first time since being waived by the Portland Trail Blazers. The 2022 first-round pick is now set to continue his professional career with the Texas Legends, the NBA G League affiliate of the Dallas Mavericks.
Sochan, who spent two seasons with the Spurs after being selected ninth overall in the 2022 NBA Draft, was claimed off waivers by Portland in October 2026 but did not appear in a regular-season game for the Trail Blazers. His release opens the door for a fresh start in the G League, where he will aim to regain NBA form.
The 21-year-old Polish-British forward averaged 11.0 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 2.5 assists per game during his sophomore season with San Antonio. His move to the Legends provides an opportunity for extended playing time and development within the Mavericks organization.
