There's definitely some similarities in terms of their build and defensive ability, but Jimmy is more athletic and plays at a faster pace than Castle does. Neither could shoot the 3 in college so hopefully Castle develops into a plus shooter like Jimmy has, but that will likely take some time as Castle is nowhere close to being a good outside shooter right now.
@@elijahmartinez99 right now, he's not great. But he shot 76% from the FT line and that usually is good predictor of 3pt shooting. He will get to 35% or better from 3 sooner rather than later.
@@bballer191 Castle is definitely the more explosive athlete especially at this age lol Jimmy played 3 years in college, Castle is much better than he was at this stage. Jimmy is like a 32% career 3pt shooter on less than 3 attempts per game. Lol Castle will more than likely develop a more consistent shot. Obviously it’s all projections since he hasn’t played in the league, but he has higher upside than Jimmy coming out without a doubt.
Yea this is something new. He has more of a pace to his game I feel like he could develop into a SGA prototype as well with a lot of Jimmy. I was impressed on his willingness to always give the ball Up when it’s open. I’m sure Pop loved that
Style-wise, he reminds me so much of Donavan Mitchell. A little of Norman Powell too. He can't shoot like them though. Anyway, this kid is really strong. I can see him bully players his size in the NBA.
Some guys are high flyers, other guys are finesse players, other guys are silky shooters-Castle is just a beast from a physicality standpoint, beating and backing guys down to get to his spots with patience and tenacity. He’ll explode for some physical plays but it’s that patience to get to his spots and his willingness to mix it up for offensive rebounds and put backs shows me why he’s going to be very successful in the NBA. Already plays like a vet, has that calmness to him. Castle will get to the foul line a lot too and become borderline invaluable in clutch situations when the game is on the line-on both sides of the ball. The put back layup there to go up 1, forcing a miss against some team’s best wing scorer on a last shot in a final possession to seal a win. That’s what Castle’s going to bring to the Spurs in the NBA-a winner who can help them get back to their dynastic ways.
This draft class is deep. Hopefully spurs pick Castle, Reed or Dillingham at 4th pick and get one bigman back up for Wemby who plays like Aaron Gordon at 8th pick or in round 2.
He is like a bigger and more defense-focused Ja Morant. This will make Keldon Johnson expendable. KJ will make more money elsewhere. If Spurs get Cooper Flagg next year, they will rule the NBA for the next 10 years.
I’m sure he studies a’lot of Jimmy Butler’s film. Very smooth game
First time I've seen him and I thought the same thing. Jimmy Butler!

Reminds me of Jrue
@@bballer191 if he goes to the spurs hes definitely going to have a good shot
I was thinking the same thing
Future San Antonio Spur with the 4th Overall Pick. 💯
I hope so! Holland @ 8 and we are cooking!
2 none shooters no castle or reed at 4 tidjane at 8
Correct ✅
@ He already Knew
You called it!
Look forward to see him playing with Wemby at San Antonio
0:36 OMFG this dude is a beast, NBA all day
Naw FR

As a UConn fan spurs fan he is the real deal take care of our boy 🫡
Can he shoot? Clips look like other teams would let him take 3s

Spins like Tony and does the Euro like Manu💪
His Defense is miles ahead of his Offense too, big two way potential. Jimmy Butler/Bruce Brown
Welcome to San Antonio!
Good call lol
Guy’s gonna be an impactful NBA player for sure
Future Spur
Recent reports suggest you're likely right!
Correct
This Kid looks really good. Maybe Pops sees something others don’t.
Plays similar to Jimmy. Better shooter, more explosive athlete, kid is a 2 way dog!
Tyrese Maxey

Very Impressive skillful Young king, hope he stays on Uconn
He’ll be a top 10 pick this year
He is like Charles Barkley as a point guard 💯

What is his player comparison⁉️

We almost got castle and rob 😢
Who’s here after the 2024 draft 🎉🙏 #letsgospurs
Spurs going to have back to back ROTYs after Castle wins.
Uhhhhh I doubt it lol he’s good but why would he be ROTY when he can barely shoot?
easily ROTY
The Spurs are playing chess because our new rook is a Castle #GoSpursGo
Future spurs castle good defense then back to back champ champ
Tyrese Maxey… Jimmy Butler can’t pat the rock like that.
