Damonte was also a big time scorer in HS before his knee injury so he had maybe a better starting point. Like Ty though he really lacked confidence in his shooting and that took him awhile to overcome. I think the ability can be there for Ty if he gets the confidence going.

Was he? I thought I saw where he averaged 15 a game in HS, Ty averaged 17.

That said, his shot was certainly never as bad as what Ty has shown. About half of his shot attempts were 3s even as a FR/SO.

Funny , with all the stats and video , that DMFW was better know for his throwing the BB off another player to go out of bounds and Illini ball........................It really really is funny if you think about it ..............................................or not.............................

No idea if you would ever have any reason to be down that way, but the best Bloody Mary I've ever had is from a tiny little brunch spot called The Iron Whisk in Cobden, IL. It has just enough smokiness to cancel out the off-putting sweetness of the tomato juice without going overboard. Their food is great also.
I'll have to check it out. Usually eat at the Mexican taco stand,but for some reason, I didn't make it there this Summer.

It’s a very small space, so there’s usually a wait, but it’s worth it. I love the taco stand also. And then you can waste the day away at Fuzzy’s! 🍻
