Dreams to play in the NBA only came true for a few. Dominick was signed up for basketball camps and mentor programs since the age of 9. His father would often take him to Cloverleaf a court near Druid Hill Park in Baltimore to play with the older guys. He was so in to his game that he walked around with a basketball daring anybody to knock it out of his hands.
"Dad, when I go to the NBA I'm gonna buy you and mama a house!" he told his father as they walked to the corner store.
His dad was one of his biggest supporters. Even though his father wasn't the shining example set fourth by Bill Cosby he was a father, the kind of father that walked his son to school every morning and played one on one with him at the local recreation center. Growing up in a two parent household was not that common where Dominick was from but he was one of the lucky ones at least that is how it looked on the outside.
