球队在客场之旅行至瓦塞尔家乡时，团结支持这位摇摆人
昨晚，圣安东尼奥马刺队在2025年牛仔竞技表演巡回赛的第二场比赛中以一分险胜亚特兰大老鹰队。
前一天晚上，佐治亚州本地人德文·瓦塞尔(Devin Vassell)在他的高中接受了表彰。这位2018届桃树岭高中毕业生，成为了该校历史上第一位退役篮球球衣的球员。
多么特别的时刻！

瓦塞尔在亚特兰大郊区的佐治亚州劳伦斯维尔出生和长大，就读于距离苏瓦尼仅10英里的桃树岭高中。高年级时，他场均贡献21.6分和8.9个篮板。德文被《吉温内特每日邮报》评为年度最佳地区球员。

瓦塞尔被家人和朋友包围着，其中还有一些熟悉的面孔。
哇，这太酷了，#porvida 的球迷们…

圣安东尼奥马刺队的成员也在场支持瓦塞尔，社区也向他表达了敬意。
让人想起斯蒂芬·卡斯尔(Stephon Castle)获得NCAA冠军戒指的时刻，瓦塞尔的球衣庆祝活动强调了球队彼此支持，以及他们如何融合和共同成长。

Open Thread: Peachtree Ridge High School retires Devin Vassell’s jersey
The team rallies around their swingman as the road trip heads through his hometown
Last night the San Antonio Spurs defeated the Atlanta Hawks by one point in the second gasme of the 2025 Rodeo Road Trip.
The night before, Georgia native Devin Vassell was honored at his high school. The 2018 Peachtree Ridge High School grad became the first player in the school’s history to have his basketball jersey retired.
What a special moment

Vassell, born and raised in Lawrenceville, Georgia, a suburb of Atlanta, attended Peachtree Ridge in Suwanee, just 10 miles away. As a senior, he averaged 21.6 points and 8.9 rebounds. Devin was named the regional Player of the Year by the Gwinnett Daily Post.

Well, this is cool, #porvida fans…

Members of the San Antonio Spurs were there to support Vassell as the community honored him.
Reminiscent of when Stephon Castle got his NCAA Championship ring, Vassell’s jersey celebration underscores just how much this team supports one another and how they are gelling and growing together.
