Rookie of the Year Stephon Castle of the San Antonio Spurs was unanimously voted to the 2024-25 NBA All-Rookie first team, the league announced Tuesday.

Castle, 20, averaged a rookie-best 14.7 points and also led with 74 steals while playing in 81 games (47 starts). The guard also averaged 4.1 assists and 3.7 rebounds and made 95 3-point baskets.

Castle is joined by forwards Zaccharie Risacher of the Atlanta Hawks and Jaylen Wells of the Memphis Grizzlies, who finished second and third, respectively, in the Rookie of the Year voting in April.

Wells is joined by his Memphis teammate, center Zach Edey. It’s the first time a team had multiple players named to the All-Rookie first team since the Grizzlies did it in 2019-20 with Brandon Clarke and Ja Morant.

Rounding out the first team, voted on by a global panel of sportswriters and broadcasters, is Washington Wizards forward-center Alex Sarr. With Sarr and Risacher both hailing from France, it marks the first time the team includes two players from the same country other than the United States.

The All-Rookie second team features Chicago Bulls forward Matas Buzelis, Wizards guard Bub Carrington, Portland Trail Blazers center Donovan Clingan, New Orleans Pelicans center Yves Missi and Miami Heat center Kel’el Ware.
