Jokic with 25 points in the first quarter against Zubac. It's insane the way he's playing this season.
 
I think there's plenty of time but if you looked at the all-stars right now, he would be. His stats and impact are not just good for a 2nd year guy who we all love, he's been incredible objectively.

The Spurs are good, Wemby is an obvious, but he's the 2nd best player by a mile.
The thing is… he's getting better. He started off the season struggling with turnovers (as was pointed out on this board).

Then like a lot of us were saying. He just needed time and he has now had his 4th consecutive game with 10+ assists. And 2 TOs on top of it.

Sometimes guys just need to play through mistakes and learn from them. Talk about a quick learner. Sky will be the limit for him.

FT shooting has also been great the past six or so games. Right now, in the past 6 games, his only flaw has been his 3PT shooting. He's at 19/8/6 right now and is one of the best perimeter defenders in the NBA.

Castle is crushing it! Love hearing this. I can't wait to see how high he goes.

I absolutely love the idea of him being involved with the staff once his professional playing career is over. Hopefully Hurley is around long enough to make that happen. Before anyone freaks out at that, I mean that Cam very well may have a solid 8+ year career as a valuable piece to teams; and boy do we hope Hurley keeps things rolling here that long.
 
I’m a day late but no UConn in the NBA yesterday. From Wednesday -

Castle: as mentioned finished with his first career triple double. 23/10/10 on 9-16. What a beast. Not to rain on the parade but I was watching that one and his 10th rebound was when the game was already over and 5 seconds left..but a triple double is a triple double! I am seconding the all star game push. I think he’s very close to being in that conversation

Liam: 11 minutes and 5 points on 1-4

AJax: had 5 garbage time minutes but 3 assists and a +9 in those minutes

Cam: high minutes off the bench in a blowout (29) but only 5 points on 1-5. 3 assists, 2 rebounds

Clingan: 9 points on 4-9 (0-4 3P), 10 rebounds, 3 blocks

Hawkins: 8 minutes, 6 points on 2-5 (2-4 3P)

G League -

Rahsool Diggins is in the G League. Played on Wednesday, 4 points and 4 assists in 14 minutes

Bouknight: 15 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists, 5 turnovers on 4-13 (1-6 3P)

Newton: 24 points, 11 assists on 10-24 (3-11 3P). 5 steals, 5 TO
 
There are times when he looks like the best player on the floor. He’s just a superstar plain and simple. He’s got the physical ability but more importantly the basketball IQ that makes him a star for the NBA and great for UConn!
I don't even think he NEEDS it to become an All-Star caliber player, but if he could just get his 3-pt shot up around 35%, he would become an absolute MONSTER. But even without a reliable 3-pt shot, he's still showing he can be an All-NBA type player.
