1. 🥶That was cold AF 🥶

2. What a fuckin animal

3. man castle is so good for his age

4. Reminds me of a kid stopping before shooting at the big hoop

5. Haters will call it a travel but it’s squeaky clean af

6. Dayym

7. “How many Euro Steps can you do in frozen time, Douglas!?”

8. Dare I say this might be Slow-Mo 2.0. Not to say Castle is slow like Kyle, but his fast breaks are so unique yet hard to guard.

9. Why is a rookie the first player to use it to this extreme? I know other players have hesied Eurostep before but he exaggerates it like crazy.

10. slow steppin castle

11. this shit was diabolical

    Doing this at 20 years old with only 10 nba games played in your career is crazy work

12. Stephon “MATRIX” Castle

13. Love this move, kinda scared for the knees though. Hopefully he’s doing lots of workout for his legs, those can’t be good long-term lol

14. I’ve watched this like a dozen times trying to figure out why someone hasn’t done it yet… yeah looks legit. So rare that you see a truly unique move now, and this absolutely qualifies. Not a travel, not a foul, not bending the rules in any way — just no one has done this yet. Hot damn young man!

15. New Shoes.

16. Magic footwork!!!

17. Bro Castle thought about the meaning of life during that hesi move.

18. Mr. Freeze🥶

19. If i dont see this on the NBA top 10 plays of the night, I will blow up NBA headquarters

20. Have you ever seen it done better!? Boy stopped TIME

21. Dunno if he’ll win ROTY, but he’ll be the best player in this draft class. I firmly believe in him

22. This is the play that really got me on Castle tonight.

    Watch how aware Castle is. When the play starts, he is at the left elbow. When Heurter gets jammed up driving, Castle cheats to the middle and then is able to jump Heurter’s passing lane to start the fast break, then makes the perfect pass for Julian.

    That’s like 10 year veteran Manu Ginobili off-ball defensive awareness.

23. Pinoy step!

24. Not perfect, but who intrigues me is he seems to be a fast learner.

25. Johnson’s reaction is all of us.

26. #Timeout:

    Have we ever seen this before?

27. Nasty ass move but slow it down it’s a travel

28. I knew an old head Air Force Chief Master Sergeant that used to do this shit in pickup games in Kuwait. We had an intramural league with a couple former D1/D2 basketball players and he was killing everybody with it. Possibly the most infuriating move in basketball for a defender.

29. Initially I thought this was a travel but then he only took two steps. I was also doing this sometimes in my pickup games.

30. Keldon . . . Loves that!
