Desmond is a crafty three-level combo guard known as a score-first punisher with a quick release from deep and smooth touch to the tune of 40% in regular games and a blistering 54% in conference games. Desmond is explosive off the bounce and a strong finisher. But don't let this sniper fool you, Desmond is a dynamic playmaker who loves fueling his teammates with timely passes. mixes it up well on the boards and is a defensive gem!!
Desmond averaged 20 points, 4 assists, and 3 rebounds per game in his sophomore season. Desmond is focusing on developing more of a dog mentality, crashing the boards with a goal for his upcoming junior season to get his assists up to 6 per game and his rebounds to 8 per game. Desmond also wants to be conference player of the year again and the Regional MVP. Desmond's biggest challenge to achieving the goal is working around box and 1s and double teams.
Desmond's biggest accomplishments are winning 3A GSHL MVP as a sophomore and 1st team All-Region. The biggest game Desmond is looking forward to is Evergreen vs Mountain View because it’s our cross-town rival game, high energy, and they have an upcoming player trying to become ”the guy” of 3A. Desmond believes his team will make a deep run in the state because they have experience from last year and want it more than anyone else.
What gets Desmond fired up most when someone talks trash or says he can’t do something.
Desmond thinks he is fit for D1 basketball. Desmond has strong D2 interest from CWU and also has interest from D1 University of Portland.
Desmond is a pure, high-level athlete with all the skills and intangibles to impact a team pretty quickly. This is likely to be another breakout season worth watching. Stay tuned.
