San Antonio Spurs rookie Stephon Castle could not escape the rookie hazing tradition as he fell prey to a brutal prank by his team's veterans following their 126-116 home win against the Dallas Maveri

The San Antonio Spurs snapped a three-game losing streak, beating the Dallas Mavericks 126-116 on Wednesday. Rookie Stephon Castle remained solid, continuing a seven-game streak of scoring double-figures. However, being a rookie seems to have finally caught up to him, as his teammates pranked him in a rather extreme way.

Spurs guard Stephon Castle may be the leading candidate to win rookie of the year, but that doesn't mean he's immune from getting pranked by his older teammates. De'Aaron Fox and other veterans got a good laugh at Castle's expense after he discovered the wheels had been removed from his sports car at the Frost Bank Center's players parking lot during Wednesday night's 126-116 win over Dallas.
