Description

In Rookie Watch Vol. 5 on the Locked On NBA Big Board podcast, Rafael and James Barlowe dig into the early ups and downs of this season’s rookie class. They kick off with No. 1 pick Zaccharie Risacher, dissecting his recent shooting woes after a tough 1-9 night against the Kings. Rafael points out that despite getting open looks courtesy of Trae Young, Risacher has struggled to convert, shooting just 25% on catch-and-shoot jumpers and an eye-catching 36% on layups. 

The duo then highlights Tristan da Silva’s efficient 17-point effort, where he took advantage of added minutes with Paolo Banchero out. Ron Holland’s shot consistency is another talking point, with Holland scoring efficiently in the paint (77.8%) but hitting only 1-11 on jumpers. 

The brothers also dive into Tidjane Salaun’s confident shot selection, Donovan Clingan’s potential as a rebounding force with more minutes, and round out the episode with insights on rookies Yves Missi, AJay Mitchell, Dillon Jones, Ja’Kobe Walter’s NBA debut, and the Raptors’ intriguing rookie class.
