Agree completely. Its just a bad comparison. JA is a kid that came to Uconn at our lowest point since the beginning of the Calhoun era. I wonder what that kid couldve done with some pieces around him.
Alleyne can return for another season. They all get the extra COVID year. He has to be more likely to use it than Castle.
Castle is a 6’7 PG unlike any player UConn has ever had at the position.
Mostly because he’ll be in a much better situation then Jalen. Jalen was a beast. Just on terrible terrible teams.
Because he's a better player.
Both was/will be really really good.
Newton will absolutely not be in the NBA next year.
Castle might be great, but it seems like you’re selling Adams short. You can’t definitively say any player will have a better UConn career based on high school film.
I said he's going to have a much better basketball career than Jalen Adams. You're right, Castle isn't going to be at UConn for four seasons leading them to 15 win seasons. He's going to leave early and be an NBA player.
That Caster is one slippery kid. Really gets things moving.
Yes, he’s the real deal. Has the measurables and intangibles.
Duh. Alleyne is more likely to use the extra year than Newton, not Castle. Maybe they are the same player after all.
Not if he stays another year at UConn. A final four or NC would add considerably to his resume.
Adams was raw a heck. He was just at UConn at a very bad time.
Facts
Some call it...a plan!
Yeah, and maybe you gave the same advice to Bouknight.
Yeah, and maybe you gave the same advice to Bouknight.
It’s really impossible to determine that based on some high school highlights and accolades. He could shoot 20% from 3 and be stuck here for 4 years. Adams plays on one of the best teams outside of the NBA, and has been borderline nba caliber since he left college. Still think you’re underselling him.
Don’t want to think of our win totals those years if we didn’t have Adams
