Recently the former Longwood sharpshooter was profiled and interviewed by D-League Digest about his push to join the 18 team D-League.
“I’m really looking forward to the experience and opportunity that I hope to have in the NBA D-League, I want to test my talents at the next level.
My time at Longwood was great, it was a very tight knit town filled with people that want to see you do well. Everybody knows everybody, and people support you both on and off the court a great deal.
“I’m fine tuning everything that I feel like I need to get noticed. Whether it’s ball-handling, or running the point, I’ve been working on it, and I feel good about where I’m at. I also want to go about it the same as I’ve always played, which is fast paced,”
The D-League draft will be held this Saturday, November 1 starting at 3 PM. The draft will be 8 rounds long and feature 144 picks.
