I hate it for Damion because he was prepared to play this year and had an opportunity to help us, ... From a basketball perspective, it certainly has an impact on our frontcourt depth. We didn't have much to start with, and now we are losing our biggest low-post player.
attention basketball gets great nobody people
The attention that basketball gets here is incredible, and that's what you want. You want interest. You can have a great team, but if nobody cares, it doesn't do any good. I think there's positives, and some people will say there are negatives. But there also are a lot of positives.
