I can understand your post especially if you saw him at state last season. However, I saw him 3-4 times right before that in both regular season and playoffs and he was fantastic and best player on the court each game. If you want to see his ceiling watch the YouTube highlights of his massive game at Pontiac. Oh, and if there is one thing I believe about Brad Underwood is he will get his players to bring the intensity which is all Damonte needs to do regularly to reach his massive potential.
If he comes back 100% healthy he will be the most athletic player on the team and with talent to boot.
There is nobody in this class I would like to see back out and certainly includes Damonte.
