Nice article about Deonte!  Good luck to the young man.

Hoping he succeeds in his chosen profession. Also hoping he majored in Italian. I have a feeling that might be needed in his near future.

Guarding whom?

Don't you know, nobody plays defense in the NBA anymore?  Teams in the 90s with 90s rules could've totally and completely shut down this year's Warriors, duh.

Guarding whom?

Burton was Top 15 nationwide of all players in Pudner's Defensive Value Add...why the hate?  It's not like Wojo's team play better defense. Burton transferring was a net negative. That said, he wasn't a Wojo fit.

I am hoping he gets drafted by the Bucks and becomes a home town hero.

I hope you're not holding your breath on that one.

Wish him nothing but the best. Kid got dealt a tough hand. Tougher than most. I don't think his defense will be the problem. He's a pretty solid on ball defender and his steal and block stats make him a very good defender overall. He greatly improved from his time at Marquette. His offense is too inefficient. From a PPP perspective, the only offensive plays he was great at were post ups and put backs....which he won't be doing in the NBA. Should have a nice european or d-league career. But who knows? Weirder things have happened.

Pulling for him as well. Hope he ends up making some real dough.
