Ash Street Jail inmate Tyrone Young of Roxbury follows his shadow as he brings the ball upcourt. Young, 34, of Roxbury, who says he was charged with selling drugs, pretends he's elsewhere. Anywhere else. 'It makes you think you're on the streets playing with a whole crowd around you,' he says. 'Everybody's oohing and aahing. You get the rush, the applause. We fantasize.'
