Other than length I dont think Cody Williams has anything on Castle.

Length and shooting percentages, but those are important differentiators for a big guard. Cody's length allows him to drive and make plays even if he doesn't completely get past his defender.
He’s shooting his way up draft boards.

I'm starting to think I've overlooked McCain.
The sample size is so small on Cody that I dont trust it with how timid he plays as a scorer.
When I watch Walter I do like him a lot. He's very active, moves really well off the ball, and is tough. I think he's going to be a good defender at the NBA level.
Think his ball-handling /driving has some upside even though he doesnt seem to be good at it currently.

How did he get a flagrant 1 on an offensive foul?

My pitch for Williams is that all of the prospects in this draft require some imagination and my imagination takes Williams to the most exciting place for our team.
Yeah, I have no issue taking Williams at 9th. He's going to be in my top 10 regardless.
But I definitely wouldnt take him top 3.
What pair of NBA brothers are the closest in talent while both being highly talented?
In the modern era, it has to be Pau/Marc Gasol? And even then, I would say Pau was clearly a tier ahead of Marc overall. Lonzo/Melo would have been another if either could stay healthy.
It seems like there is usually a clear better/worse brother. Justin/Jrue Holiday. Brook/Robin Lopez. Marcus/Markieff Morris. Steph/Seth. Caleb/Cody Martin. Jerami/Jerian Grant. Jeff/Marcus Teague. Moritz/Franz Wagner.
It's just so rare to have two all-star caliber brothers.

Walter has had two dimes to Missi that's he messed up.

Schheirman reminds of those players taken late first or second round that just survive around the league. He can do a little bit of everything.
Alexander can be a very good player. Love his positional size. He is deadly from midrange. Decent 3 point shooter and a decent passer.
Kalkbrenner is the kind of player you love to have at the end of your bench. Can stretch the floor some is a decent rebounder. Tries to play positional defense.

Pun intended?
Walter somehow just gets fouled constantly. Too bad him and Baylor are struggling to hit open shots and FTs
Missi doesnt really standout to me as having a ton of talent

This was my whole point with Amen and Ausar last year.
I'm not sure it's that great a point looking back at it now.
They are definitely super close in talent level. Whoever figures out how to not be an awful shooter wins.
Big and high motor. The kind of guy who goes in the 20s usually.

He's going to look better in the NBA than in the NCAA. There's nowhere to drive in college, and I think that's really the premise behind his game at this stage.
Man, Walter has been really good but he cant hit his FTs today. What a bummer.
