Makes you wonder who told the draft sites he’s 6’6” and why those websites just rode along with it. A slow guard with no shooting, how palatable lol

Something does seem off with Castle's measurements.
I can really can understand the reticences about Risacher, since he's not a super sexy player, and nothing elite seem to blatantly stand out, but he's acutally been shooting pretty well this season (and provides great defense) so I' m not sure why you guys tag him as a bad shooter. I don't believe he could be projected that high otherwise.
Wemby shot 27% on 3 his last season in France. Ofc, Vic brings "a bit" more to the table than that, but it's all about potential and projections. I'll just post Givony and Woo last comments on their new post-lottery mock draft about Risacher, cos I bevieve that's what you'd hope for with him, notably the "attractive mix of safety and upside":
"The Wizards' front office can afford to take a big swing at the top of the draft as the team enters Year 2 of what figures to be a patient, long-term rebuild. Washington's roster remains fluid into the future, and the team should be looking for the best talent available at this spot. Risacher's potential to space the floor, defend at a high level and develop into a quality starter on the wing presents an attractive mix of safety and upside at No. 2. Washington selected another Frenchman, Bilal Coulibaly, in last year's lottery, and will have an opportunity to keep that trend going, with at least one of Risacher and Sarr available to them here. -- Woo"
attractive mix of safety and upside
The largest red flag with Risacher is his FT shooting, which is the best projector of NBA shooting.
The castle measurements are wrong btw. You can even see from the draft broadcast how much taller he is than Sheppard and Dillingham.
Looks like he fixed it these last few weeks, shooting over 80%, the last 8 games or so. Maybe he needed to change his mechanics or routine, or just focus. he's 75% for the season.
ryan dunn is also 6'6....Thought he was legit 6'8....No way he can be a center or pf at 6'6
These measurement guys have one job and they failed.
How tf is the NBA combines measurements so fked up, how hard is it to measure height lmao
Damn was hoping Holland would be closer to his listed 6'8"
How tf do you mess up measurements?
Take a ay from the la rams playbook trade the picks for a proven commodity that fits the rebuild now. Don't want to waste any time with Wemby we hope he has a long dominant career but that slight frame knees etc could make it shorter but besides that we have two lottery picks keldon other picks target your player and go get them there has to be a team that can match up or values our picks more than we do or wants to add youth. There's no time to again draft kids and wait for do they have it will they get better are they good and Wembys time just wasting away. Dump the picks get what you need that's proven to match Wemby who already proved himself. Wemby vassell and your target then add veterans that want to win or ring chase etc.
No way in are these heights accurate lmao wtf
Wearing his GF's heals.
Filipowski wins the Kevin Willis Negative Wingspan Award

Can't wait for LeBron to join his next team rocking #100.
Topic still playing.
Apparently the Castle numbers are wrong and are actually for Devin Carter.
Sarr not really 7'1"
Christ, now idiots on reddit will be repeating the wrong stats for the next six weeks.
Rob Dillingham weight 164.2 wingspan 6-3 standing reach 7-11
Holland will be near 6’8” in shoes so I don’t think this is too far off
Once the NBA publishes them, you can take them to the bank. They’re accurate.
