DraftExpress: Really interesting article about Derrick Caracter and the transformation his body went through under Dan Barto at IMG: http://bit.ly/9vKgXM

DraftExpress: Whoa RT @ShamSports: Derrick Caracter needed to weigh 275lbs to get his contract guaranteed. Appears he shot for 175 http://bit.ly/bfBxhM

Derrick Caracter is not super explosive (plays below the rim) but he gets off the floor very quickly, which really helps make up for that.

Derrick Caracter moves the way very few big men can. Extremely fluid and nimble with superb body control. Body looks great. Excellent hands.

Derrick Caracter is looking absolutely fantastic. Every European GM in the building has a huge hard on for him right now.
