Happy 21st birthday to former No. 4-overall NBA Draft pick and 2024-25 NBA Rookie of the Year, Stephon Castle!

Castle followed up Victor Wembanyama’s Rookie of the Year campaign with the Spurs with a more human one of his own to become the first players since Andrew Wiggins and Karl-Anthony Towns to win RoY for the same team in back-to-back seasons. In his first year with the Spurs, Castle played in 81 games with 42 starts, averaging 14.7 points, 4.1 assists and 3.7 rebounds in 26.7 minutes-per-game. 

Which brings us to today’s quiz. How many of the NBA players to be named Rookie of the Year in the Lottery Era (since 1985) can you name in six minutes?

Good luck!
