Mario Dunn Commits to Montana

Last week, Montana got a commitment from PG Mario Dunn, according to Coast 2 Coast Hoops.

Dunn is 5'11'', and looks like a nice prospect for the Grizzlies. He had scholarship offers from teams like UC Irvine, Pacific, and Santa Clara.

Here is ESPN's profile of him:

Strengths:
He's not tall but he is tough. Dunn has a little burst that can get him to the cup or into his shot off the drive. He's got a natural feel for the game in transition or the half court set. Goes to the spinner and has all kinds of finishing plays. Confident, tight handle.

Weaknesses:
Needs work on taking care of the ball when he's under duress. Knows what to do, just has to take his time and make crisp decisions. Would like to see more range and confidence with his perimeter shot.
For obvious reasons, Dunn is drawing comparions to Will Cherry, another point guard out of California. While those expectations may be a bit high, he is a good looking prospect for the Grizzlies.
