He is the #10 ranked center in his class. Composite #43.

The #3 center in the 2021 class is Nate Bittle. He is averaging 6 minutes per game.

Other centers in the 30-50 range...

#29 Enoch Boakye - 12 MPG
#32 Efton Reid - 21 MPG
#33 Charles Bediako - 18 MPG
#47 Jonas Aidoo - 2 MPG (2 games played)
#52 Kaden Perry - 6 MPG

I would do a little bit of research before you make these claims. He is neither the 3rd ranked center in his class, nor do most players at his ranking earn substantial minutes as freshmen. Bigs develop slower than guards. Clearly, it's not even close to a given that a 4* center is going to get minutes. Outside of the top 10, hardly any are.

We also have a history of bringing along even the most talented freshmen slowly.

That doesn't even account for the fact that Donovan is most likely going to be playing behind Sanogo, who should be earning 30 MPG. If Samson Johnson and Akok play 0 minutes at the 5, that still only leaves 10 MPG for Clingan. Where are these 20 minutes coming from?
