a steady, multi-skilled guard with proven scoring pedigree
DePante is a 6-foot-3 Youngstown State guard whose calling card has long been shot-making and all-around production: in high school he averaged 22 points, 4 assists, and 44% from three in 2022, and he earned WPIAL Player of the Year honors after carrying Central Catholic in the postseason.[7][11][14] At Youngstown State, his 2024-25 minutes have been limited, but in the games he has played he has shown some playmaking and rebound utility for a guard, including a 6-point, 5-assist outing against Milwaukee.[1][2][3] He looks like a fit for teams valuing a poised combo guard who can handle, create, and compete with a scorer’s mentality rather than just pure athletic flash.[10][14]
