Message: [QUOTE="Palatine, post: 4910377, member: 974"] At Castle's age Caron was still at Maine Central. Because of his troubles he lost a year in high school and another at prep school. Plus, the injury slowed Castle's progress this year. But I was watching a documentary on Caron as part of the Big 3 of the Washington Wizards and the physical similarity was striking. There is a great story about Caron when he joined the Lakers. In his first game he went (for something like) 30+ points. After the game Kobe Bryant came over to him and said "Don't get used to it." A lot depends on where you go and what they need. As Castle, who is now 20 years old, gains his man strength, he will be a locomotive going down hill. As the shot comes along, he will score like Caron with better assist and rebounding numbers. But they come out of the same mold. Half forward. Half Guard. Neither is a rocket on the court. But as you say. He will get anywhere he needs to. Whoever drafts him will be very happy. [/QUOTE]
