Spurs Just Won the Draft…
The Spurs draft Stephon Castle with the 4th overall pick. My favorite player in the draft, and the guy that fills the most holes on the Spurs roster.

He's a new Dejunte Murray…same game type from what I can tell. Hopefully he works on his offensive game soon. Wemby needs a reliable playmaker who can also take pressure off him by shooting well from the perimeter.
Not happy with the pick. He’s not the best overall player in the draft. Not even close.
This draft was a total fail
We really need to get Garland now. Castle will be KJ 2.0
We get a Klay Thompson or a nice quick shooter would be great
These 2 are gonna give PROBLEMS to pther offences and if they can pick up another bucket getter and maybe a decent big to match up with the big physical guys like embiid, we might have a dynasty on our hands. Lauri markannen is the guy ive been eyeing up to add some size and spacing
Castle is a great pick but Spurs just gave the 8th pick away so no Spurs didnt win the draft. Def needed a shooter to complement Wemby and Castle but passed on Knecht and Devin Carter lol
We picked a role player with the number 4 overall pick lol!! Brian Wright is trash! We did not win the draft!
They definitely didn't WIN the draft. It was a solid B grade
Castle is good just hope the Spurs don't play him as there ball handler and point guard next season. He is not ready for that. He is still raw offensively. But amazing defensively.
Horrible pick and trade!!! Spurs need a true point guard and good outside shooter. This pick and trade do neither to address their needs. Spurs already have plenty of role players. What they need is impact players like Clingan and Sheppard. As for the trade, Wemby will be long gone. Do you really think he is going he going to stick around until 2031 to get a good player?
Terrific pick. Steph Castle is a winner!
i think they wanted holland but he was gone at 5. so they got outta there with more than likely their best offer available that had little protections from a poorly ran organization. those will be pretty valuable based on the new cba and how the tax penalties will be applied. they got their guy at 4 already and now have more assets to use or package in a deal. most people dont realized how valuable an unprotected pick is and a top 1 protected are however far down the line they are. on top of that the spurs have been stockpiling assets from some of the historically worst ran organizations in the league. the hawks were nice when the spurs got their picks and theyre already about to hit the reset button. history says the wolves wont sustain their success either. the spurs are sitting pretty. SA and OKC for that matter have set themselves up for sustained success, not the one year wonder multiple max deal free agents/trades that might result in a ring but more than likely wont. I.E the kd beal booker suns, butler embiid simmons then harden embiid sixers, dwight nash kobe lakers, kg pierce nets, kd irving harden nets. dwight cp3 harden rockets. its pretty rare for high priced free agents and or trades to result in a title, unless its Lebron James who is the exception to this. the push your chips to the middle and mortgage the future route doesnt have a good track record at all. draft and develop has dynasty track records.
26% three point shooter who wants to be point guard. Good luck.
don't forget that the inverted pick and roll with Vic and Castle will be unstoppable
Just need Mac McClung and the team will be at the top
He cannot shoot!!!!!!
I think this guy will be like DJ and Kawhi, defensive first and train the offensive side of things
Wemby, Sochan, Vassell, and Castle gonna be fun to watch next season
Wemby and castle can run a pick and roll with either player as the ball handler and they can switch on pick and rolls aswell too
VW-Sochan-Castle are going to be a "D" juggernaut next season to turn 19 losses by 6pts or less into 12-15 wins. Castle will be better than Bruce Bowen.
Flakers wanted to move up. Spurs should have traded the 8 pick to the Flakers for their pick (17) and a future first rounder.
With VW, the Spurs better get a billionaire partner and stop thinking "small market team" b/c VW will leave if the Spurs aren't going to surround him with the $-players need to compete for titles EVERY YEAR starting in VW's 3rd Year.
The Spurs won the draft?! LOL. They spurs will continue to finds ways to bundle picks and players.
They traded Dillingham for someone who is in 8th grade right now!
2031!! Thats an eternity in NBA years!
