DeAndre Martise Daniels[1] (born April 15, 1992) is an American professional basketball player who last played for the Townsville Heat of the NBL1 North. He played college basketball for the UConn Huskies, where he won a national championship and made the NCAA Final Four All-Tournament team in 2014.
A 6'9" small forward from Los Angeles, Daniels surprised recruiting experts by choosing defending champion Connecticut out of IMG Academy – despite never visiting the East Coast school. Daniels stuck with the Huskies even after the school was declared ineligible for the postseason in 2012–13 due to poor Academic Progress Rate performance.[2] He was selected by the Toronto Raptors with the 37th overall pick in the 2014 NBA draft.
