STANZ: Deonte Burton reflects on journey from Ames to Korea and now the NBA

[JStanz51]

It was great to see Deonte again this afternoon. I love this reunion because it gives us an opportunity to see some of our favorite guys to cover as well. Love Deonte's story.

Geez. Slow down you guys. I want to go to bed, but I just keep seeing new content. First day of football camp. Basketball alumni reunion. Next, CW's podcast with Tim Floyd and Monte Morris. I can hardly keep up with you guys. Great stuff.

Looked like he had some thunderous dunks in that vid, but I think I also saw him get blown by and give up a thunderous dunk as well.

Love Deonte, wish him all the best. He can definitely make it in the League.

Awesome/hilarious video of Deonte Burton accepting the MVP award in Korea’s Basketball League. The best part is when Deonte, the most quiet, cool, collected guy, accepts the award and is then bombarded by 4 or five guys handing him bouquets of flowers. While giving his speech, Deonte bear hugs all of the bouquets.

Looked like quite the experience over there. Whole other world.

Hugging the flowers, not the guys. Nice suspense in the build-up. And fun to watch how mad the runner-up was. Not sure he was expecting to have to say something in Korean. So glad he is having success there.
