Can a fourth pick in the draft be considered a steal?

If it is Stephon Castle landing with the San Antonio Spurs, it is.

Castle’s summer league was cut short due to injury, but he flashed enough in his one game in Vegas and two at the California Classic to make me believe he might be the best player from this draft in a few seasons.

In the few games Castle did play, he showed his ability to make the correct passing reads off pick-and-rolls, get into the lane easily, and be a solid defender. Through three games, he has averaged four assists to go with his 17.3 points a game. His jumper could be better, but if that improves over the next few seasons, he will be a perfect running mate with Victor Wembanyama.
