Quotable: "We are very fortunate to have an opportunity to have Donavin as a member of our program. He fits the profile we are looking for, and he will provide excellent attitude, work ethic and pride in the program.  is a late bloomer who gives us a plus athlete in the frontcourt. He can stretch the floor with his perimeter shooting and has the ability to be an impactful defender with his length and athleticism. He can chase down a lob as well as rebound out of his area. We are hoping that he can remind people of a Josh Huestis or Spencer Jones Stanford prototype." - Kyle Smith
