Castro has been instrumental to the rise of Gilas in international basketball and has twice been hailed as the best point guard in Asia.
Now, this question begs to be asked: who should be included in the Gilas pool as possible replacements for Castro?
Here are five options:
Mark Barroca. Barroca has proven himself as probably the best two-way point guard we have, not just in the All-Filipino Cup but even during his most recent Gilas stint. While his outside shooting is still not as good as you would expect from an elite guard, it's good enough for him to be dangerous. His defense though, puts him in an entirely different category, with only his Purefoods backup, Jio Jalalon, and Ginebra spitfire, Scottie Thompson, coming close.
