-Ultra shifty point guard that gets wherever he wants because of a tight handle and the fact that he always keeps his head up to scan for the right play. Donald put a ton of pressure on the rim throughout the contest and was constantly forcing help rotations that freed up his teammates for open looks around the basket and on the perimeter. His best sequence came on a rip at half court that led to an extension lay throught the contact followed by a long rebound that he collected before throwing a perfect 40-foot bounce pass to a streaking teammate in transition.

Donald can go! Already as a sophomore, he operates in two modes: a playmaker when others have it going and a takeover mode when he puts the team on his back and makes big shots. Despite playing on a roster with many upperclassmen, he is dynamic with the ball in his hands. He makes life easy for his teammates with on-time passes and threading the needle in tight windows around the rim.
Donald is a legitimate three-level scorer, benefiting from the gravity other players on his team create and excelling in his role. As he continues to mature, he has the potential to become a standout point guard at the next level.

The 5-9 freshman point guard was just short of finishing with a double-double as he dropped 33 points and eight assists in the double-overtime win over Forest. He is starting to grow his game right before our eyes as he plays with complete maturity and has a strong IQ from the point guard position. Donald utilized his unselfishness as he made some strong, crisp passes at the rim as well as on the swing pass to open shooters out on the perimeter. Donald needs to be on most people’s radars before his freshman season comes to an end.
