Swats seven in double-double Castleton had a team-high 21 points (6-12 FG, 9-12 FT) to go along with 10 rebounds, seven blocks and three assists over 31 minutes in Tuesday's 72-63 victory against Ole Miss.

Impact The Gators were without key offensive contributor Scottie Lewis due to health and safety protocols, and with top producer Tre Mann on the bench for much of the first half due to fouls, it was Castleton who answered the call. It was the junior's third 20-point effort of the year but first career double-double. The seven blocks were of course a career best as well, bringing his season average to 1.8 bpg.

Season-best output Castleton had 23 points (11-13 FG, 1-4 FT), five rebounds and two blocks across 30 minutes in Wednesday's 91-72 victory over Florida.

Impact Castleton has started each game this season for the Gators, but the Michigan transfer has often taken a backseat in offensive production and overall touches. With teammate Keyontae Johnson out for the rest of the year due to a heart issue, however, other Gators will have to step up to replace the 16.0 ppg he left behind. Castleton took more than triple the amount of shots Wednesday as any other game this season, and at least on this night, the junior was the one who answered the call.
