Castle had a bad fall, injured his wrist and was shut down.
Wemby didn't play in the first SL, can't remember where it was, he played only in Vegas.
According to this article from the NY Post it is.

note the quotes in your picture.
Though he has been identified over and over as Bailey’s agent, the Deseret News has confirmed that Cooper is not an NBPA-certified agent, which means he can not provide counsel to Bailey or represent him in any kind of contract negotiations.

Ace Bailey is represented by Omar Cooper of LifeStyle Sports Agency. Cooper is the father of former Auburn player Sharife Cooper, who was drafted by the Hawks in 2022 but currently plays overseas.Cooper and Bailey met when Bailey played on Cooper's Athletes of Tomorrow basketball team. Bailey moved from Tennessee to Georgia in high school to be closer to Cooper, who then helped connect Bailey to Rutgers as a recruit out of high school.
Cooper helped develop Bailey in high school, as the future Rutgers star was one of several boys and girls whom Cooper took under his wing.
"The plan was to keep Ace in the gym 24/7," Cooper said, via Kevin Armstrong of NJ Advanced Media. "For the most part, it was sunup to sundown for him to be able to turn the corner."

Oh yeah, more AAU garbage.
As awful as that would look for the league, a tiny part of me wants him to sit out and Cost Ainge a top 5 pick.
Utah’s very own Uncle Dennis

Is his agent Tracy Morgan?
The 30 for 30 on Ace Bailey will be fun
Spurs would have taken VJ at 3 if they didn't get 2 right? No way they would have touched Bailey
Just as I dare not think about what would have happened if we were picking #2 in 2023, I don't want to harm my brain by thinking about picking #3 this year.Spurs would have taken VJ at 3 if they didn't get 2 right? No way they would have touched Bailey
wowza
but thats more or less in line with expectations. 25m per year seemed like what his market would have been. i dont think anybody would have approached 30. big for minnesota to keep him, especially with randle's future uncertain
There goes Naz
Naz Reid's performance in the Playoffs turned me off on him tbh. He's soft, doesn't crash the boards, no back-to-the-basket game, just hovers around the 3-point line (mostly in the corner), etc. Minny can have him tbh.
Yeah that's about market value for him tbh
precisely the pf that most here want (even wanted someone like mcneeley to do what you described) and what ive wanted to avoid
Not surprised. $25M per is about market value as mentioned above. Some teams probably would have gone to $30M per over 4 years but that would be an overpay for the value he brings. Even $25M is slightly above his true value.
Bring on Santi, Collins or PJ Washington.
I doubt they would have any real interest in Ace Bailey. He doesn't tick any of the Spurs boxes. IMO they'd go Edgecombe or Tre Johnson.Spurs would have taken VJ at 3 if they didn't get 2 right? No way they would have touched Bailey
If Naz is worth $25MM/yr then I think Santi is worth... $25MM/yr
What's Drew Eubanks doing.
I have zero doubt Santi’s agent is going to be showing the Reid contract in every negotiation.
But I feel like if Naz is worth $25M then Santi is about $20M. Based on Naz producing for a couple extra seasons on a winning team and proving himself somewhat it in the playoffs by being a contributor to playoff series wins.
