My Take
Damion Lee's path is the kind I find easy to root for. He spent four years grinding at Drexel, transferred to Louisville for one last shot, then went completely undrafted in 2016. Plenty of players quit right there. Instead he ground through the G League before the Hawks finally signed him in 2018. To me that undrafted-to-NBA arc says more about character than any lottery selection ever could. He had to earn every inch, and you can feel it. Coming out of Baltimore with that much patience and self-belief is genuinely admirable. He made the league bet on him.
