In the latest episode of the Locked On NBA Big Board Podcast, host Rafael and James Barlowe revive their popular Rookie Watch series after a month-long focus on college basketball. The episode begins with a spotlight on Jared McCain, whose stellar play was interrupted by injury. They then dive into Jaylen Wells, the Memphis Grizzlies rookie who’s exceeded expectations as a surprise starter for one of the league’s top teams. The brothers also highlight the quiet yet steady improvement of Alex Sarr, Yves Missi’s emergence in New Orleans, and weigh in on rookies like Stephon Castle, Donovan Clingan, Bub Carrington, Zaccharie Risacher, and Tristan da Silva.
