The Mountaineer basketball season is still several months away as the team will be spending part of their summer playing overseas. However, many former Mountaineers were in town recently for the Bob Huggins Fantasy Camp.
One of those players was Da’Sean Butler who signed with the San Antonio Spurs earlier in the year.
“San Antonio’s great,” Butler said. “It’s a little similar to here, but at the same time its different. Obviously, I’m accustomed to being here for those four years, but San Antonio’s a great city and there are great people there too as well.”
Meanwhile, he said he’s just glad to get an opportunity to play at the next level and plans on taking advantage of it.
“The only expectations that I have is to get my opportunity to go out there and play, work hard and get solid minutes maybe – whatever,” Butler said. “Honestly, whatever’s thrown at me I’ll be grateful and take it. It should hopefully be a good year next year with the Spurs and I’m just praying for the best.”
