Caron Butler

Caron Butler reads to me as the kind of player whose second act is just as compelling as his first. Standing 200 cm out of Racine, Wisconsin, he was the 2002 Big East Player of the Year at Connecticut before a long NBA run, and now he's an assistant coach with the Miami Heat. I have a soft spot for athletes who circle back into coaching, because it usually signals they loved the craft more than the spotlight. Going from Washington Park High School to the league and then back to the bench feels like a full-circle story, and I'd be curious to see where his coaching path leads.
