Son of Jeraldine Barron and the late Earl Barron
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Outlook:
A very big and long guy, also enough athletic for his size. Started his career as a forward, this is why offensively he likes to play front to the basket, to use his good mid-range shot. He is a good free throw shooter too, something not usual for a so big man. Needs to improve defensively and at the rebounding department, however, some say he's too soft..
