in their game on March 13 Donte had 14 pts, 11 rebs but tweaked his knee...
he did not play last night and his coach said (per autotranslator) ...
"KTP lacked Donte Thomas, the best point and rebound player in the group. He is known to have mild knee injury."
...recall Donte had a fairly serious cartilage tear in his knee which ended his senior high school season & which limited him here as a freshman..
