Florida Top 250 Expo Prospect Report: Dionte Blanch (2020)
2020 East Lake guard Dionte Blanch was one of 33 underclassmen and 86 total prospects in attendance at the Prep Hoops Florida Top 250 Expo on Saturday, Sept. 30th at DME Academy in Daytona Beach.
I sat down with Blanch to talk about his time at the expo.
Q: What was your experience like in Daytona at the Prep Hoops Top 250 Expo?
A: I felt like it was a great experience, it was set up nice and I got a lot of work out of it.
Q: Where did you first hear about it?
A: I first heard about it on Twitter.
Q: What was the best thing you learned?
A: The best thing I learned was how to use my change of pace dribble more effectively.
Q: What positive in your game grew? What negative in your game did you notice and try to fix?
A: My jump shot grow more positively and I noticed that I was lacking in communicating with my team and tried to fix it later during the sessions.
Q: Would you recommend the expo to your peers? How come?
A: Yes, I would recommend it to my peers because they would get an opportunity to learn and get a lot of work in.
Q: What is your role looking like this season?
A: My role is to be the starting point guard this season so I get to control my team and become a better leader for my team.
Blanch showed up on tape a year ago as a freshman. The 6’2″ guard is certainly better just a year later with an improved jump shot and a better feel for the game. His attacking skills to the rack are impressive and he should help East Lake be a very sound team with his leadership.
