CARTERSVILLE, Ga. – Pendleton County star Dontaie Allen is a secret no more.
Allen, whose AAU team the M.A.T.T.S. Mustangs was one of several clubs unaffiliated with any of the major shoe circuits invited to the Under Armour Challenge this week, arrived in Georgia as a rising prospect just beginning to create buzz among high-major programs.
He left as the tournament’s leading scorer and perhaps on the verge of becoming the rare in-state player to earn a scholarship offer from UK.
