Minot head coach, Dean Winczewski comments on Dissette
“Darik is a difference-maker on each end of the floor he plays with tremendous energy. He is a great teammate and he’s a player that we lean on when we need a basket.”
ND Phenom head coach, Joe Ware on Dissette
“Darik’s a great kid that gives maximum effort on both ends all the time. Always in the right spot at the right time! He’s one of those players that you can rarely find anything to complain about. This spring, Darik took the opportunity to show his accumulative work on his game on a larger stage. He’s playing his natural position with Phenom and really played well.“
Director of ND Phenom, Jordan Maurer’s thoughts on Dissette
“I have been involved in club basketball for over a decade and what separates Darik Dissette Darik Dissette 6'4" | SG Minot | 2023 State #300 Nation ND from every other player that I have been involved with is the energy he brings on a possession to possession basis whether he is in the game, on the bench, or just cheering on another team in the program. The athleticism, length, and skill set speak for themselves, but his enthusiasm and positivity are what takes him over the top.”

Darik Dissette Darik Dissette 6'4" | SG Minot | 2023 State #300 Nation ND – “My time in Indy and Lawrence was fun. The tournaments went well for me and my teammates I think. We finished each tournament 3-1. The competition was new from what I’m used to playing, but after a couple of games, I started to adjust to the pace. So far the recruiting process has been going well. I have been offered by UND and NDSU as of right now.”
