Q and A

Give me a short scouting report on yourself as a player. What are your strengths?

  • Shooting, passing, IQ, dribbling.

Can you tell us one unusual thing about yourself that others may not know?

  • My nick name is Don don and people say I look like Tre Mann and Spencer Dinwiddie in my free time I like to play video games and go on bike rides.

What's the best part of playing high school basketball and why?

  • Playing for the community and having an opportunity to win a state title.

Tell me about the outlook for your team this year. What are the strengths of your team?

  • We are gonna be a very young team this year, we gonna have 8-9 sophomores playing varsity but that don’t mean we can’t win a state title this year and we are a defensive team.

What type of training do you do in the offseason?

  • I play AAU for Team GetShook Basketball, train and lift in the off season.

Breakdown featuring our daily spotlight players

Every weekday until the official high school sports seasons begin (an unknown date with the current world situation), BREAKDOWN SPORTS will be featuring a spotlight player in each of the seven sports we cover! 

With the high school sports world on pause, THE BREAKDOWN wants to make sure these athletes are recognized for their accomplishments on the field, court, rink, diamond, etc.

The schedule of spotlight players will be as follows:

  • Monday: softball
  • Tuesday: baseball
  • Wednesday: girls' volleyball
  • Thursday: boys' and girls' basketball
  • Friday: boys' and girls' hockey

Each of our spotlight players will have action and posed photos, as well as the Q and A information they provided for this past year's Breakdown book in their respective sport.
