Continue ReadingWhitney Young 2018 point guard Xavier Castaneda is one of the top lead guards in the state’s sophomore class. After an injury plagued summer with Meanstreets the sophomore point guard is back healthy and has looked clearly like the Dolphins best player. The 5’9” strongly built floor general looks to attack. He consistently knocks down pull up mid-range jump shots. Great elevation on the shot while staying balanced and in rhythm. Also has some ability off the bounce with impressive speed on his first step. Solid passer that draws defenders and can find open teammates.
The sophomore talked about his role on the team.
“My role on the team is putting pressure on the defense and kicking it out to other people to give myself and others around me opportunities for open shots.”
He has initial interest from several programs.
“I got a few looks from Iowa, Dayton, Xavier, Virginia, and hopefully some more.”
