Desmond Lee (born March 3, 1990) is an American professional basketball player for the Moncton Magic of the National Basketball League of Canada. He played college basketball for New Mexico Junior College and NC State.
Lee attended New Mexico Junior College for two years and led the team to a 50–16 record. He was a JuCo All-American and was ranked the 10th best junior college prospect when he committed to NC State.[1] As a sophomore, Lee posted 20.3 points, 5.1 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game.[2] In his first Division I game, a 98–77 win over Appalachian State, Lee scored 24 points on 10-of-12 shooting.[3] Lee started 19 games as a junior and averaged 8.4 points per game. However, he saw his playing time drop after the emergence of Trevor Lacey the following season. Lee averaged a mere 2.9 points per game as a senior, but came off the bench to provide defense and energy. He had seven points in the upset of Villanova to send the Wolfpack to the Sweet 16.[4]
