One On One Feat. Roderick Caldwell (Cincinnati Lakers)


Sometimes a player grows on you over a weekend. I experienced that with Roderick Caldwell of the Cincinnati Lakers. At first glance Caldwell appeared to be a decent point guard but by Sunday night he had me watching his every move. He’s not the quickest guard in the world but his savvy play and jump shot reminds me of BJ Armstrong during his days at the University of Iowa (You Tube Him). I got a chance to chat with Roderick and pick his brain. Here’s our One on One.
