CLINTON, IA (June 13, 2017) - Basketball star Devan Douglas will be returning home to Clinton and attending Thursday night's game between the Clinton LumberKings and Beloit Snappers.

Douglas attended the University of Mary in Bismark, North Dakota where he thrilled NCAA basketball fans in the Slam Dunk contest during the Final Four in Houston, winning the event. A month following his Cinderella win, he earned his degree to complete his collegiate career.
Head Coach for the University of Mary, Joe Kittell called him "the ultimate entertainer." And following his College career Douglas announced that he would be continuing his basketball career with one of the most well-known teams in basketball history, the Harlem Globtrotters.
