Key Information

Early life

[edit]

Castleton was born and lived in Pembroke Pines, Florida. He also lived in Tampa, Florida, Fort Benning Georgia, Doral, Florida and DeLand, Florida. Castleton attended Father Lopez Catholic High School in Daytona Beach, Florida. He is of Panamanian descent through his paternal and maternal great-grand parents, grand parents and parents. His father, Eddie Castleton, played for the Panamanian National Baseball Team in 1986. As a senior, he averaged 24.5 points, 11.7 rebounds, and 5.6 blocks per game and was named a finalist for Florida's Mr. Basketball Award and the Class 7A Player of the Year.[1] Castleton was rated as a four-star recruit and committed to playing college basketball for Michigan after considering 32 offers including Duke, Clemson, Georgia, Purdue, Florida, Florida State, and Xavier.[2] On November 10, 2017, Castleton tendered his National Letter of Intent as part of a five-man recruiting class for the University of Michigan that included Ignas Brazdeikis, David DeJulius, Brandon Johns, and Adrien Nunez.[3]

College career

[edit]

Castleton played in 19 games as a true freshman and averaged 1.1 points and 1.1 rebounds per game.[4] As a sophomore, he averaged 3.1 points on 54% shooting and 2.4 rebounds over 25 games played, all off the bench.[5] Following the end of the season, Castleton entered the transfer portal and ultimately transferred to the University of Florida, which had offered him a scholarship coming out of high school.[6][7]

Castleton was granted a waiver to make him eligible to play for the Florida Gators immediately rather than have to sit out one season per NCAA transfer rules.[8] During the season, he became the seventh Gator (following Vernon Maxwell, Dan Cross, Joakim Noah, Scottie Wilbekin, Michael Frazier II (3) and Jalen Hudson) to ever earn Southeastern Conference (SEC) player of the week honors at least twice in the same season.[9] He was named second-team All-SEC after averaging 12.4 points and 6.4 rebounds with a conference-high 2.3 blocks per game during the regular season.[10][11] Following the season, Castleton declared for the 2021 NBA draft while maintaining his college eligibility.[12] He ultimately opted to withdraw from the draft and return to Florida.[13]

On November 14, 2021, Castleton recorded 15 points, a career-high 16 rebounds, and six blocks in a 71–55 win against Florida State.[14] That effort contributed to his third SEC Player of the Week honor.[15] He was named to the Second Team All-SEC as a senior.[16]

On January 16, 2023, Castleton was recognized with his fourth career SEC Player of the Week award, making him the second Gator to achieve four, one behind Vernon Maxwell in Gator history. The effort partly recognizes the rare stat line of 16 points, 13 rebounds, six assists, three steals, and two blocked shots against Missouri on January 14.[17][18] On February 15, 2023, Castleton broke his hand in a 79–64 win against Ole Miss and was lost for the season. Before the injury, he was averaging 16.5 points (third in the SEC), 7.9 rebounds (sixth) and 3.0 blocks (first) per game. He had been on a hot streak prior to the injury, with averages of 24.8 points and 9.5 rebounds per game over his last four games.[19] The coaches recognized him as a first-team All-SEC selectee.[20]

Standing at 6 feet 11 inches (2.11 m) tall and weighing 250 pounds (113 kg), Castleton is known for his shot-blocking ability and rebounding prowess, having set a University of Florida single-season record with 3.0 blocks per game during the 2022–23 season. Castleton began his college basketball career at the University of Michigan, where he appeared in 44 games over two seasons (2018–20), averaging 2.3 points and 2.0 rebounds per game while primarily coming off the bench. He transferred to the University of Florida in 2020, becoming a starter and emerging as a defensive standout in the Southeastern Conference (SEC). Over three seasons with the Gators (2020–23), he played in 78 games, starting 75, and compiled career averages of 14.9 points, 7.7 rebounds, and 2.5 blocks per game, earning recognition as the SEC's leader in blocks per game (3.0) in 2022–23 and ranking third nationally that year. His senior year accolades included multiple SEC Player of the Week honors and spots on the All-SEC First Team and SEC All-Defensive Team.

Early life and high school

Early life

Colin Castleton was born on May 25, 2000, in Pembroke Pines, Florida. He is the youngest of three boys, with his two older brothers being 10 and 6 years his senior, respectively. His biological father, Eddie Castleton, a Panamanian former baseball player who represented Panama Metro in 1986, and mother, Karen Bapp, played significant roles in his early development, with the family emphasizing discipline and athletics amid a military lifestyle influenced by his stepfather, Steven Bapp, a U.S. Army colonel. Castleton's early years involved frequent moves due to his stepfather's military service, including time spent in Fort Benning, Georgia, where sports became a central part of family life. He participated in multiple youth sports, such as quarterback in football and pitching in baseball, but basketball emerged as a key interest starting in third grade when he joined his first organized team. As the tallest child on the court—already wearing size-12 shoes by fifth grade—his parents encouraged travel ball participation after recognizing his potential, with other families urging them to pursue competitive opportunities. In 2009, around the time of fifth grade, the family relocated from Fort Benning to DeLand, Florida. Growing up in Florida, Castleton developed an early affinity for the sport through local leagues and drew inspiration from watching Florida Gators games, which fueled his passion despite not being an avid fan initially. Later, the family moved to Daytona Beach to support his high school basketball pursuits, marking a pivotal step in his athletic journey.

High school career

Castleton attended Father Lopez Catholic High School in Daytona Beach, Florida, from 2014 to 2018, where he played basketball for the Green Wave. As a senior in the 2017–18 season, he emerged as a dominant force in the paint, averaging 24.5 points, 11.7 rebounds, and 5.6 blocks per game, leading his team to a strong performance in Class 7A competitions. His shot-blocking prowess ranked him 19th nationally and first in Florida's 7A division, showcasing his defensive impact and athletic potential. For his outstanding senior campaign, Castleton was named the Florida Association of Basketball Coaches (FABC) Class 7A Player of the Year in 2018, recognizing his leadership and statistical dominance. He also finished in the top 10 for Florida's Mr. Basketball Award, highlighting his status as one of the state's premier high school talents. Rated as a four-star recruit by major scouting services, Castleton attracted interest from numerous college programs during his recruitment process. He ultimately committed to the University of Michigan in October 2017, choosing the Wolverines over other suitors including the University of Florida, Florida State, and Purdue. This decision capped a recruitment that saw him receive 21 scholarship offers, underscoring his versatility as a 6-foot-11 forward with scoring and rebounding skills.

College career

University of Michigan (2018–2020)

Castleton, a four-star recruit from Father Lopez Catholic High School in Daytona Beach, Florida, committed to the University of Michigan in October 2017. As a freshman during the 2018–19 season, Castleton appeared in 19 games off the bench for the Wolverines, averaging 1.1 points and 1.1 rebounds in 3.4 minutes per game. His limited role came amid a deep frontcourt rotation that included experienced players like Moritz Wagner and Isaiah Livers, contributing to Michigan's 30–7 record and Elite Eight appearance in the NCAA Tournament. In his sophomore year of 2019–20, Castleton saw a slight increase in opportunities, playing in all 25 games as a reserve and averaging 3.1 points, 2.4 rebounds, and 0.5 blocks in 7.9 minutes per game. He provided energy in short stints, particularly on the glass and in rim protection, but remained behind starters Hunter Dickinson and Austin Davis on the depth chart, which restricted his development and impact. The combination of intense competition for minutes in Michigan's loaded big-man rotation and his desire for a larger role prompted Castleton to enter the NCAA transfer portal on April 9, 2020, ending his tenure with the Wolverines after two seasons. Academically, he earned Michigan Academic Achievement honors in 2019 for maintaining a strong GPA while balancing his basketball commitments.

University of Florida (2020–2023)

Castleton transferred from the University of Michigan to the University of Florida in late April 2020, after appearing in 44 games over two seasons with limited playing time at Michigan. The NCAA approved a waiver in August 2020, granting him immediate eligibility to play for the Gators rather than requiring a sit-out year. In the 2020–21 season, his junior year, Castleton emerged as a key frontcourt presence for Florida, appearing in 24 games and starting 21 while averaging 12.4 points, 6.4 rebounds, and 2.3 blocks per game. He also earned two SEC Player of the Week honors during the season. His defensive impact was particularly notable, ranking second in the SEC in blocks per game during conference play. For his performance, he earned Second Team All-SEC honors (coaches' selection). During the 2021–22 season, Castleton's senior year, he started all 28 games and elevated his production, averaging 16.2 points, 9.0 rebounds, and 2.2 blocks per game while leading the Gators in scoring and rebounding. He recorded eight double-doubles, including standout efforts against ranked opponents, and was again named to the Second Team All-SEC by the coaches. He also earned an SEC Player of the Week honor during the season. In his fifth year during the 2022–23 season, Castleton started all 26 games, averaging 16.0 points, 7.7 rebounds, and a Florida single-season record 3.0 blocks per game, establishing himself as one of the conference's top rim protectors. He earned First Team All-SEC honors from the coaches, Second Team from the Associated Press, and a selection to the SEC All-Defensive Team, becoming the first Gator in a decade to receive All-SEC recognition three times. Castleton graduated in December 2022 with a bachelor's degree in education sciences before pursuing a master's in sport management.

Professional career

Los Angeles Lakers / South Bay Lakers (2023–2024)

After going undrafted in the 2023 NBA draft, Castleton signed a two-way contract with the Los Angeles Lakers on July 3, 2023, allowing him to split time between the NBA team and its G League affiliate, the South Bay Lakers. He participated in the 2023 NBA Summer League in Las Vegas, where he averaged 13.4 points, 10.2 rebounds, and 4.4 assists over five games, showcasing his versatility as a big man with playmaking ability. Castleton made his NBA debut on November 4, 2023, against the Phoenix Suns, entering in the fourth quarter. During the 2023–24 season, he appeared in 16 games for the Lakers, primarily in limited minutes off the bench, averaging 1.4 points, 0.6 rebounds, and 3.6 minutes per game. His opportunities were mostly in blowout situations, highlighting his role as a developmental player behind established centers like Anthony Davis. Assigned to the South Bay Lakers for much of the season, Castleton thrived in the G League, playing in 12 games and averaging 18.7 points, 11.3 rebounds, and 1.3 blocks per game while shooting 60.1% from the field. His double-double performances underscored his rebounding prowess and defensive presence, earning him consistent starts and contributing to the team's rotation as a key interior force. Castleton was part of the Lakers' roster during their victory in the inaugural 2023 NBA In-Season Tournament, where the team defeated the Indiana Pacers in the final on December 9, 2023; as a two-way player, he received a share of the $3.1 million prize pool, nearly doubling his seasonal earnings. Although he did not play in the tournament games, his inclusion on the active roster marked an early highlight of his professional tenure. On October 19, 2024, the Lakers waived Castleton to sign guard Quincy Olivari to a two-way contract ahead of the 2024–25 season.

Memphis Grizzlies / Memphis Hustle (2024–2025)

On October 30, 2024, Castleton signed a two-way contract with the Memphis Grizzlies, allowing him to split time between the NBA team and its G League affiliate, the Memphis Hustle. This move came shortly after his waiver from the Los Angeles Lakers earlier that month, providing an opportunity for continued development in a new organization. During his brief stint with the Grizzlies, Castleton appeared in 10 NBA games, primarily in limited minutes off the bench as a reserve big man. He averaged 1.4 points and 0.9 rebounds per game, contributing modestly to the team's frontcourt depth amid injuries and rotations. His role emphasized rebounding and defensive presence in short bursts, though he did not secure a starting position or extended playing time. In the G League, Castleton saw more substantial action with the Hustle, averaging 16.8 points and 8.1 rebounds across 9 games. This performance highlighted his athleticism and scoring ability around the rim, helping the Hustle in their developmental matchups. However, on January 10, 2025, the Grizzlies waived Castleton to accommodate roster adjustments and sign another player to a two-way deal, ending his time with the organization.

Osceola Magic (2025)

Following his waiver by the Memphis Grizzlies on January 10, 2025, Castleton signed with the Osceola Magic of the NBA G League on January 15, after the team acquired his returning player rights from the Long Island Nets. Castleton quickly established himself as a starting center for Osceola, providing rim protection and rebounding prowess during a crucial midseason stretch. Over 17 games with the team, he averaged 17.4 points, 10.6 rebounds, and 1.2 blocks per game, showcasing his athleticism and defensive instincts in the paint. His efficient scoring, often through dunks and putbacks, complemented Osceola's fast-paced offense, helping the team secure several wins against conference affiliates. Standout performances included multiple double-doubles, such as an 18-point, 14-rebound effort against the Raptors 905 on February 7, 2025. These contributions bolstered Osceola's playoff positioning and highlighted Castleton's growing impact as a versatile big man, paving the way for his subsequent NBA opportunity.

Toronto Raptors (first stint, 2025)

On March 6, 2025, the Toronto Raptors signed center Colin Castleton to a 10-day contract after his impressive play with the Osceola Magic in the NBA G League, where he averaged 18.2 points and 10.5 rebounds per game. The Raptors extended Castleton's contract for a second 10-day deal on March 16, 2025, providing continued opportunity for the 6-foot-11 center to contribute at the NBA level. Across his first stint with the Raptors in March 2025, Castleton appeared in games off the bench, contributing defensive presence in select matchups through his length and rebounding effort. Castleton's contract expired on March 26, 2025, after which he became a free agent.

Philadelphia 76ers (2025)

On April 3, 2025, Colin Castleton signed a 10-day contract with the Philadelphia 76ers, effectively covering the remainder of the regular season as the NBA campaign concluded on April 13. This move came shortly after a brief stint with the Toronto Raptors earlier in the 2024–25 season, continuing his journeyman path in the league. In five appearances for the 76ers, Castleton provided depth at center, averaging 6.0 points, 7.4 rebounds, and 2.0 assists per game in limited minutes off the bench. His contributions were particularly evident on the glass, where he grabbed a career-high 14 rebounds in a game against the Washington Wizards on April 9, 2025, helping stabilize the frontcourt during late-season matchups adjacent to playoff positioning. Castleton also notched a personal best of 16 points on April 11, 2025, showcasing his scoring potential in transition and around the rim. Following the conclusion of the regular season on April 13, 2025, Castleton's contract expired, rendering him an unrestricted free agent.

Toronto Raptors (second stint, 2025)

On April 12, 2025, the Toronto Raptors re-signed center Colin Castleton to a contract for the remainder of the 2024–25 NBA season, marking his return to the team after a brief stint with the Philadelphia 76ers. This multi-year deal, with the 2025–26 portion non-guaranteed, allowed Castleton to finish the season in Toronto amid ongoing roster needs. In his second stint with the Raptors from April 2025, Castleton appeared in additional games, providing depth during the team's injury-plagued stretch and helping stabilize the rotation in the final weeks of the regular season. Across both stints with Toronto in 2024-25, he played 11 games, averaging 6.6 points and 6.7 rebounds. His role included a career-high 14 rebounds in one outing against the Philadelphia 76ers. Following the conclusion of the 2024–25 season, the Raptors waived Castleton on July 28, 2025, as part of roster adjustments ahead of training camp, placing him into unrestricted free agency.

Orlando Magic / Osceola Magic (2025–present)

On August 22, 2025, Castleton signed an Exhibit 10 contract with the Orlando Magic, providing an opportunity to compete for a spot during training camp. This non-guaranteed deal allowed him to participate in preseason activities and potentially transition to the G League affiliate if not retained on the NBA roster. The Magic converted Castleton's contract to a two-way agreement on October 17, 2025, filling their final two-way slot and enabling him to split time between the NBA team and the Osceola Magic in the G League. This move recognized his preseason contributions, including solid rebounding and defensive presence, as noted by coach Jamahl Mosley. As of November 16, 2025, Castleton has yet to appear in NBA games during the 2025–26 season but has been active with the Osceola Magic. In the season opener on November 7, 2025, against the Texas Legends, he recorded a double-double with 27 points and 13 rebounds, shooting 12-of-20 from the field to lead the team in a 134-113 victory. Through four games in November 2025, he has averaged approximately 24 points and 10 rebounds, including a career-high 32 points on 10-of-11 shooting on November 13, 2025, against the Mexico City Capitanes.
