Plays too much hero ball. Kind of like curbelo in that regard.
I guess if they were trying to throw it high for the 7'4 guy, then it might make sense. But it didn't get that high or far.
DMW’s dad might be another one
Deron was the third best player in the team as Bracey Wright and Bam Harmon were the primary scorers on the team. I saw many of their games and they were sweet to watch as Deron was a pass first PG.
Interesting that he was the third best player because two players out scored him. Never saw the team but doubt it.
Don’t get me wrong I love Curbelo’s game as a whole but let’s no pretend he hasn’t tried to do too much in certain stretches of games. At the end of the day a turnover is the same as a missed shot but worse since you don’t give your team a chance to get the rebound
I saw him play. A lot. He was a 5 star player but Bracey and Bam got the headlines. When I say third best, its like A1, A2 and A3.
Did the other two players get to the NBA?
Bracey did, drafted 2nd round in 2005, played a few games over a couple seasons, still plays abroad.
That is not important as we are talking about a high school team and the NBA. Both Harmon and Wright did not have the tools to Be successful in the NBA but Deron did. It didn’t mean that Harmon and Wright were extremely better or worse. Going by what I saw and what Deron did not make those players better. Bracey was a talent but his game did not warrant an NBA career. Sone on here are comparing apples and oranges. Deron was talented but his role in HS was to make those around him better while sacrificing his numbers.
While he may try to do "too much", I'd take that 10 outta 10 times over standing around the perimeter doing nothing.
