He's getting outplayed by Mikal Bridges thus far today, but he's an above average starter & a good self-creator on offense.
His team defense - which was a plus in college, but hasn't translated - and creating for others still needs work, though.
I like Castle as a future piece, but all his advanced metrics and field goal percentages say that he's a guy that needs a lot of work.
Vassell is far, far ahead as an offensive player but that's a given when comparing a 5th year veteran to a rookie.
The better questions are can they play together and will/can Castle's offense catch up to his defensive potential.

dump his ass
Trade this loser. Wemby looked pissed losing that one cause this overpaid scrub doesn’t know how to play basketball.
Still not convinced he's better than Julian much less Steph at the starting SG position.
It's dog . He's barely better than Keldon defensively.
" This guy will be our number 2 for the next decade, he's amazing, i love his no defense style" "Wemby needs to get over himself if he can't handle it"
Trade him while you can if it’s not too late. At this rate every year we see hope, then there’s an injury comes back off the bench and then eventually starts only to disappoint and regress defensively.
Yup vassell didnt deserve to get his starting spot back. ed up castles development and barnes has turned to ever since
vassell started.
Gotta admit he‘s ass right now
People that didn’t want to trade him for Lauri but I would do that trade in a heartbeat now.
He been ass man. Can't win with this no defense playing mother er in the starting and closing lineups.
Horrible garbage piece of no defense playing loser
vassell
last season he was good offensively and our defensive schemes sucked. Right now he‘s even worse than last year.
I'm convinced Vassell is the anti-matter version of Danny Green.
* no defense
* no clutch
* main character syndrome
Totally disagree. He's coming back from multiple injuries and still finding his rhythm.
Keldon is annually one of the worst defensive players in the NBA.
Problem is we are waiting every year for Devin to find his rhythm.
As bad as he's been offensively, I'm more annoyed at how terrible he is defensively. NBA players see him guarding them and their eyes light up like a Christmas tree. He's a sieve on that end of the floor. And he doesn't rebound or do anything else to affect winning. If he's not hitting his shots, he's a net negative player, and it's compounded by the fact that he's not surrounded by better players that can help hide him. He's being asked to be our 2nd best player when he doesn't have the ability to be. All this before you mention that he's made of glass.
I know he's Wemby's best friend on the team, but if there's any way we can move him in a deal for Fox or Lauri, you pull the trigger and don't look back.
Anothe lie.
He played really well last season and has improved (in some aspect) every year of his career. Unfortunately, him being a plus defender in college hasn't translated to the pro game (it likely never will).
We just need him to be at least average in that respect, so I'll give him more time to be at least that.
Offensively, he's the second best scorer, self-creator, while getting better and better at creating for other players.
We need him to get back to playing at last year's level while improving some on defense.
Wembanyama has made another quantum leap, Sochan has improved, so has Champagnie while everyone else is treading water (including Castle, IMO).
If i had the energy id post all those “vassell is untouchable” posts…and “not trading vassell for markannen”…
lol
Even if he is hitting his shots he's often a net negative, like a 2024 version of Derek Anderson. It's amazing how the team was ninth in the league in defensive rating with Castle taking all his minutes then Main Character comes back and it starts looking like last year again on the defensive end.
Was also back when we were thinking those Atlanta picks would be gold.
i never liked that deal like others creaming on here
