Donald Lee brings size, rebounding, and old-school toughness to Bakersfield
In the 2007-08 season, Donald Lee was a 6-foot-6, 230-pound forward whose calling card was paint toughness: he averaged 11.8 points and 8.0 rebounds per game at L.A. Pierce College, with rebounding good enough to rank No. 6 in the Western State Conference. He also flashed real upside with a 31-point, 15-rebound, five-block game in high school, which hints at a physical, high-motor frontcourt player who can punish smaller lineups. If you need a rugged rebounder who brings size, edge, and a teacher’s-pet work ethic, Lee fits the bill.
