Julian Champagnie

Julian Champagnie picked the perfect night to catch fire from beyond the arc, and this clutch triple showed why he's become essential to San Antonio's offense. With the Spurs and Knicks deadlocked at 116 in the fourth on December 31, 2025, De'Aaron Fox pushes the pace and finds Champagnie sprinting up the left wing in transition. The forward catches in rhythm, rises up from 25 feet and buries a running three-pointer that would be one of his franchise-record 11 triples on the night. Champagnie erupted for a career-high 36 points on a scorching 11-of-17 from downtown in San Antonio's thrilling 134-132 New Year's Eve victory.
