Brunson Praises Castle Ahead of Upcoming Series

As the anticipation builds for the upcoming series on Wednesday, Jalen Brunson has expressed high regard for teammate Castle. During a media session held at the Frost Bank Center in San Antonio on Tuesday, Brunson highlighted Castle's remarkable qualities, stating, "He's great. I think his intensity and tenacity is special."

Brunson went on to emphasize Castle's competitive spirit, noting, "He plays with a chip on his shoulder. He's had that since I've seen him at UConn." With a few years of professional play under his belt, Castle has already made a significant impact, and Brunson believes he is poised for even greater success.

"The way he's played over these first couple years of his career, he's going to be a great player, great defender," Brunson added, underscoring the potential he sees in Castle. As the series approaches, the respect between the two players could play a crucial role in their performance on the court.
