No, Sochan will start period.
Sochan may be in line for a 6th man role this coming season. He may not start the game but he will average more minutes per game than Tre Jones and will be out there with the starters minus Tre to finish games. I don't see him having a problem with this move since he already took on this role in college even though he was Baylor's best player. This season probable lineup with minutes per game in parentheses:
Tre (26mpg), 6th man, Wesley
Vassell (33mpg), 6th man, Brannan
Keldon (34mpg), 6th man, McBucket
VicYama(30mpg), 6th man, Mamu
Collins, (34mpg), 6th man, Bassey
6th man = Sochan (28mpg)
Sochan will be the 1st player off the bench no matter the situation. He's the only player that can seamlessly be inserted into the lineup, no matter the situation, no matter who's in foul trouble. Jack of all trades type of player. Blake, Champagne, Barlow, Dieng, and 2023 2nd round draft pick will round out the 3rd string unit. KBD, Langford, and Graham want be on the roster this upcoming season.

The dude better learn to shoot as well as he trolls online or else he’s a bench player. We have our franchise player now and he better find his fit with Victor.
He's the best defender, he's the best passer, and not starting him is such a smoothbrain idea that I'm afraid Pop will do it.
Sochan will start
He will not start because of roster construction but he will for sure play starter minutes.
He will eventually start after VicYama start playing the center position after a year or 2
Here come the greys out of the woods...wandering in
So because we hit the lotto with Wemby we are putting our 2022 lottery pick on the bench. Lmao.
He starts, but they sure as will need shooters in the SL if he does. You could make the case for Devante Graham over Tre to start for that reason.
Tougher issue will be moving Keldon to the bench, where I think he would be best suited.
Ginoboli was the 2nd best player ans and he came off the bench. It's not about who starts but who finish. Sochan most likely will be the Spurs 2nd most valuable player after VicYama. He will eventually start and is good enough to start this upcoming season. He will come off the bench as a 6th man playing starter minutes for the benefit of team right now, not forever.
its going to blow your minds when wenby plays SF his whole career
Ginobili was a 57th pick that nobody cared about. That’s why he came off the bench. A top 10 lottery pick coming off the bench can only be seen as a failure.
but if harden did it, okd would've..........alas your mostly right though
i do wonder. KJ has kind of been prognosticated as a bench rotation guy on a good team. Except he was told to be the man last year and it might be hard to get him to role back happily knowing it'll hurt his career income. one reason to start KJ over sochan is to trade KJ this year. other than that sochan is more important for our future as KJ is a tweener playing at wemby's position.
Keldon will need to move to the bench either here or at his next team. They might start him at the beginning of the season, but I think it’s not too long before he’s moved to sixth man extraordinaire
Sochan is going to start. Keldon will be the 6th man unless we move him in a package beforehand.
No idea why people keep trying to make him a Big. He's a perimeter player. It's already leaked that spurs will be targeting center and Power forward veterans in Free agency.
Sochan also plays like a guard as well but doesn't need to. He can play 1-5, but he's also a perimeter player. People need to let go of the past already. It's a new game.
Manu came off the bench because Michael Finley was literal if he wasn't starting.
I'm not convinced Sochan will start. Either he or Keldon likely needs to come off the bench. Will try both to see what works.
As for team organization Collins is the big, Wembanyama one of the two wings. You can consider him either a SF or PF.
Manu came off the bench because Hedo Turkoglu was literal if he wasn’t starting.
Yeah I think Vassell should come off the bench too.
Zollins
Wemby
KJ
Vassel
Sochan
Wasn’t that lineup suggested by Timvp?
