NBA Rookie reporting cards: Select four to six

In the first row of Rookie Class 2024-25, the top throat selection in the first three goals received a grade for their performance in their respective debuts.

Starting with the top election, Zaccharia Risacher received an A, while Alexandre Sarr received an AAA and Reed Sheppard. Now a B four to six received in the spotlight and received a grade for her rookie campaign.

Remember that this grade not only reflects its effects this year, but also the optimism that should surround it, especially with regard to your design position.

After a rookie of the Year races that went back and forth all season, Stephon Castle performed with the last awards and gave the San Antonio Spurs her second winner in a row. Castle enjoyed some fascinating flashes throughout the season when he used his sportiness to value playmakers and defenders. The 6-foot 5-20-year-old wing also showed a certain potential as a scorer when he led all newcomers with just under 15 points per game.

However, the current lack of three -point knowledge of Castle cannot be overlooked. This season he only shot 28.5% out of the bow because he is still far from an average perimeter shooter. Three-point shooting is an essential ability for every perimeter player to achieve a high level of playoff effects in modern NBA, and Castle did not show much improvement here. Without this ability it will be a tough fight for the former Uconn Husky to become an effective goal scorer in order to be an effective ball or off-ball creator. This current weakness keeps the castle from an A-Class and deserves an A-.

In his rookie season, Ron Holland played a sensible bank role for the Detroit Piston's quietly when they returned to the post -season. The 6-foot 7 wing played almost 16 minutes per game in 81 out of 82 appearances. In these minutes he played energetic perimeter defense and crashed the boards with strength and showed what his influence could look like to move forward.

In these minutes, however, Holland also showed how far he is of real NBA effects. He is still a very raw scorer, especially with its 23.8% triangle shooting. He has to significantly improve his offensive repertoire in order to achieve a playoff effect in the future, but Holland deserves a B class B for his success in other facets of the game.

The selection of Tidjane Salaun by Charlotte Hornets surprised many evaluators and fans last June last June. The 19-year-old Frenchman brought his head with his youth and 6-foot 9 frame, but did not make it much out of it in his first year. He only shot 33% out of the field and 28.3% when he tried to find the ground of the network throughout the season. In his best games, he converted three to four deep shots and scored double-digit points, which demonstrated the potential as a front court shooter in the street. At the moment, however, Salaun is getting a C -note for a disappointing rookie season.
