New Nebraska big man. Same blue-collar mentality. After transferring from South Dakota State, 6-foot-11 @damonwilkinson_ is embracing the challenge of replacing Rienk Mast while expanding his game in Fred Hoiberg’s system. From learning a new defensive scheme to stretching the floor with his outside shot, Wilkinson says he’s ready for the physical grind of Big Ten basketball. Coming from De Smet, South Dakota, a town of about 1,000 people, he’s hoping to make his hometown proud every step of the way. #Huskers #NebraskaBasketball #cornhuskers #ncaambb #southdakota
