Here is in the 6th grade going coast to coast- yeah Billy didn't get in front of him.
He has performed well, Mikey Dixon is also having a great freshman year at Quinnapiac.

I think Jay Wright is preparing him for an Ryan Arcidiacono leadership role for the next 3 years. That role with Donte's athletic ability will be interesting....

He could always dribble. That wasn't the issue. He was an inconsistent shooter and his effort was even less consistent. However, he fixed his shot and he plays like a demon now. Doing great at Nova.
He's playing really well, hustling his a$$ off and really showing leadership on the court. I would argue that he's still not shooting all that well. That could be a product of knowing that this year he's there to get the ball into the hands of the scorers, and he's just not shooting enough to get any rhythm going.
100% agree.. Wat stood out to me i watched him this weekend.. Hustling hard on defense and offense and also hiting the boards too.. Amazing
I think that's mostly it, he's not the designated sniper. His shot looks better now, though and he's decisive about shooting, doesn't shy away. It will only get better. Good for him. Worked hard and is a great asset to the team. And still lots of upside.
Love Donte but won't be better than Arch. Four year captain and NCAA champion point guard tough to top. Also, Donte got a big head start by joining a program that was top shelf and loaded. Arch was a key member of the turnaround and led guys from day one.
What gym is that clip from? I thought it was IHM at first, but I don't think it is.....
That's All Saints, at the time it was Corpus Christi. It was CC vs St Matt's... CC won 25 -22- that shot pretty much sealed the game.
Lets see after 2 years of work. Donte is a way better all around athlete than Arch was at same piont in careers right now..
I don't think Donte will have a better college career than Arch but I do see Donte making the league one day so I see him as a better player overall his skill set transfer better to the league
Thanks. I love those old gyms. I miss The Box at St. E, great place to play and watch.
The Box was not kind to me at first, but we became good friends. Loved the Box!
