I took Stevo to the Derrick Caracter basketball camp at El Paso High yesterday afternoon. Stevo had a chance to get sweaty and run around a hot gym while getting to meet Randy Culpepper and Derrick Caracter. Culpepper was the Conference USA player of the year last year and is looking to lead UTEP deep into the post-season his senior year. Caracter played at UTEP one year and now is trying to make it in the NBA. He was drafted by the Lakers in the second round and has had a great summer league start in Las Vegas. The Camp was filled with kids so it had to be cut short but Stevo and I both were glad that we went. Caracter was a perfect gentleman and did a great job in working with the kids and the photo hungry parents. Hope to see Derrick soon playing for the Lakers, just hopefully not against my Spurs in the playoffs.
