He repeatedly said he’s a winner about 30 times before the team drafted him. Which took a lot of guts because the head coach actively wanted Yogi Ferrell, and he went against the grain to draft him
SUPER interesting. Shows how much power RC had and how much Donnie had to fight to get his way. Crazy.
