Castle 5, Clingan 7, some guy from France at 20

Credit to Spencer and his IQ to fit right in and become an immediate crucial catalyst for DH’s system.

There are lots of positive storylines but I think this is the one thing that has contributed the most to the team this year. Maybe by the end of the year Castle's ascendance is more important, but Cam's instant assimilation and fit has been magical.

NBA Mock Drafts 2024 - Basketball Draft Projections

Castle 5, Clingan 7, some guy from France at 20

This mock draft is horrible. The stats aren't even right despite being updated on 1/31 (supposedly).

 

[ToolzieFan]

ESPN’s latest mock draft has Clingan at 11 snd Castle at 15. They see Clingan as having the ability to rise with improved conditioning and/or a strong March performance.

Yes

Are you guys serious? He is a good player but what has he done to deserve a a #1 or high draft ?? He is just recently starting playing better. Some of you make me laugh !

Castle does not have average vision. His skip passes alone would demonstrate that. This is a take of a guy who watches Synergy and not games.

 

[BoukofJames]

Id love to know what qualifies Jeremy Woo to be a draft guru. Doesn’t seem to be plugged into NBA teams and his analysis is garbage. I’ll just wait for Sam Vecenie’s next one

 

[EnochRoot]

The only thing the announcers said worthwhile today was when one of them paused and said, “Stephon Castle is no longer a freshman.”

The announcers were fine. It was nice to hear Dickey.

Dickey Simpkins is one of the best

Maybe I'm being selfish, Make no mistake, I'm not saying that he's not everything, that everyone's saying. I just feel, in order to go right in and "shine" in the league, he needs one more year. Obviously, if he can go #1, that's once in a million lifetime chance, and he has to take it.. But, if he had just , one more year......SMH...

My question would be what do you think he can do in that extra year at UConn that he's not going to get with full time NBA training?

 

[Scottobot]

yes, I think he is the #1 guard in draft right now. I think #1 pick will probably depend on what the team needs as no player looks to have a lock on top spot.

 

[Scottobot]

I hope he dodges the Pistons and Hornets and land with one of the other teams.

LOL no he isn't. Just because he says lots of words doesn't make him 'one of the best.'

I thought the exact same thing when I read that. Not sure what Woo was watching but that’s off base.

 

[JohnFSilver]

Could Castle end up the #1 pick?

Scouts must be drooling over him. Legit 6'6 with serious on court strength. He finishes though contact as well as you'll see. He has great vision. He's a lockdown defender who can guard 1-4. And he's now showing his shooting. He's a great player/prospect as is and when you factor in how smart a player he is it makes him even more unique.

There are a lot of euros who are gonna get no. 1 pick. Castle may be first American player taken, however.

 

[JesusAllen11]

He the #1 NCAA prospect imo.

 

[Connhomer99]

Dude is the next Michael Jordan if I’ve seen one. Went to the best program to play for the best coach at the time . Same amount of letters in his first and last name. Same height. Dude is built for greatness. I’m not saying mj comparison ehh it’s a little too soon. What can I say I’m a homer lol

He'll be the steal of the draft if he lasts until the 15th pick.

I agree, He needs another year or two to further his education! LOL!
