SAN ANTONIO – Throughout this season, the San Antonio Spurs have made it a point to sing “Happy Birthday” to their teammates during practice.

Rookie guard Stephon Castle shared a special moment before the Christmas Day game against the New York Knicks when the team sang “Happy Birthday” to his mom. The team then presented Castle with the NCAA National Championship ring he earned as a freshman at UConn last year.
