Georgetown • C
Draft 2026
“Revising his score downward a bit after watching the NBA combine. Wasn't overly impressed with how he played there.”
“What sticks out with Castro is his movement at his size. 6'10", but moves like a guard. Super fluid as a mover. Has a little pop vertically, but isn't overly explosive. Because of his movement, he should be able to switch across multiple positions, which will be valued in the modern NBA. Had an extremely high stl percentage for a big, which speaks to his movement and ability to read the game defensively. Among the few bigs to reach his stl/blk percentages in recent years were Willie Cauley-Stein and Nerlens Noel. Physically, his weakness is his lack of strength. He's skinny, and it shows. Can often get overpowered. Adding strength should be the number one priority for him. Had some intriguing flashes as a passer offensively. Isn't a perimeter shooter at this point. Feel like he's a bit of a tweener. Has offensive skills of a 5, but defensive skills of a 4. Has some upside through, due to his movement tools. If he could develop the shooting skill to play as a 4, or the physical strength to play as a 5, it would go a long way..”
