10 Rising Stars in Asia in 2021-Dyson Daniels (Australia)

Asia basketball fans only got a quick glimpse of Dyson Daniels in 2021, but that was more than enough to be impressed.

Even though Daniels’ first game playing for the Boomers came before his 18th birthday, he made sure to put on a show with 23 points, 3 rebounds, 4 assists, and 6 steals along with a win over New Zealand. Daniels had already been generating some buzz prior to this breakout performance, but there’s no doubt that his outstanding performance in the Asia Cup Qualifiers back in February solidified his spot among youngsters to watch.

While we haven’t seen Daniels in the Asia basketball scene since, he’s been doing quite well as a part of the G-League Ignite team. He’s been doing pretty well as well, averaging 11.7 points, 5.9 rebounds, 4.7 assists, and 1.7 steals in 31.8 minutes per game across 11 games.

We can’t wait for him to suit up for the Boomers again ASAP.
