Spin is a quantized property of all particles, both matter and force, in the universe. Matter particles have half-integer spin (1/2, 3/2,...) and force particles integer spin (0, 1, 2,...). Spin is intrinsic angular momentum possessed by the particles. The spin of a particle is sort of analogous to that of a spinning top, except that the particle can only spin at one speed, can't stop or even slow down, and is infinitesimally small (the particles are "pointlike" and have no size). It is important to note that in no way are the particles actually spinning
A wave function is a mathematical description of the probability wave of a physical system. So if you're being fed tales about how wave function behaves - know that you're being told a simplistic tale, rather than the full story. Right, so we've pinned that one.
