Over the last year, Hansel Emmanuel Donato has become one of sports media’s biggest phenoms. Hansel Emmanuel Donato is a 17-year-old, 6’5 basketball player from the Dominican Republic who plays for Life Christian Academy in Kissimmee, Florida. But one thing that makes him so different is that he only has one arm. At age six, a wall collapsed on him and it had to be amputated.
Despite his physical limitations, he has proven to be a high-level player with a complete game. Yesterday, he posted to his Instagram that he received his first Division 1 offer, from HBCU Tennesee State University.
Hansel can possibly join Master P’s son, Hercy Miller for the Tennessee State Tigers.
