Oklahoma City Thunder's Jeremiah Robinson-Earl, left, attempts to shoot as he is defended by San Antonio Spurs' Romeo Langford during the first half of a preseason NBA basketball game Thursday, Oct. 13, 2022, in San Antonio. Romeo Langford’s NBA journey through three seasons can best be described as star-crossed.
Langford has been plagued by a variety of injuries since his rookie season. He’s played in just 98 regular-season games, including only four last season after coming to San Antonio in the deal that sent Derrick White to Boston. “I feel like I did a lot throughout the summer and in the practices to show who I am and what I am capable of doing,” Langford said. “It was kind of nerve wracking , but I was because of what I had done.”
Center Jakob Poeltl, who formed an elite pick-and-roll pairing with Murray, hopes in time he can find another partner.
