San Antonio Spurs rookie Stephon Castle on playing with Chris Paul

To say that rookie San Antonio Spurs combo guard Stephon Castle is excited to play with new veteran Spurs floor general Chris Paul may be something of an understatement. The champion University of Connecticut alum recently shared some of his thoughts about playing with his new teammate (and iconic head coach Gregg Popovich, for that matter) in an interview with Uproxx’ Robby Kalland.

“I feel like (Cp3 is) one of the best point guards to ever play in the NBA. So, to be able to learn from him, year one, it’s going to be super fun, for sure,” said Castle.

“And to be able to play alongside him, I feel like he’s a legend, so to play alongside Chris Paul and have Coach Pop with me is definitely something I’m looking forward to.”

“But just being able to pick up on things like screen navigation, like when to snake a screen, the right passes to make and stuff, I feel like he’s the best at doing that,” he added.

“So, trying to pick up on a lot of that stuff in the year that we’ll have him.”
