Like the quickness off the dribble and his attitude after making a good play. My perception of him changed alot after watching this video than just reading about him. He looks better than what I expected!
I like what I see.

Check this one out, too.

I didn't know Dorsey's high school team was an undefeated state champion his senior year. That's awesome. If only his college coach could have sealed the deal.
looking at this kid now for the first time!!...i think he be a pretty good tiger, love how hard he play's like his bro!!
I like how he doesn't shy away from contact.
He has a nice shot too.

I can't wait for him to sub out JJ, then get five dimes from his brother in five minutes. You can't underestimate chemistry.

Not sure who is in charge of assigning stars to the various players but whoever gave antonio 3 stars seems to have shorted him at least one IMHO. this young man has got game, Better still I dont see him as a one and done player , He will only get better , Remember he is 11 months younger than his brother and kids grow a lot in 11 months , in many ways ,
nice array of moves and shots, looks decisive in taking what's given and finishing strong once he's committed. good aggressiveness which is important to keep defenses honest and opens up other plays. looks to have good command of both hands and going both ways.

of course highlight films are by definition the best plays, but there seems to be enough in that vid to be pretty representative, and based off of that it's pretty easy for me to imagine him picking up another star this year.

obviously he plays below the rim (as many pgs do), but seems to play within himself that way very well - seems very comfortable finishing layups from regular glass to finger roll to dipsy-doo reverses. I guess it goes without saying for any player that finishing can be harder at the D1 college level with so much more team size on defense, and it's definitely an adjustment for a below the rim pg, but I like the way he already uses the glass and the basket to limit shot-blocking, which probably indicates he has the bbiq to make that transition well.
I know we are living in an era of "me" not "we".....but having said that, does anyone else think that players should also incorporate some footage of their nice passing abilities into these videos? Especially a point guard? I like the fact that he can cross over some high school guys and go fearlessly to the rim. But I would be just as happy to see him use quickness and excellent ball handling skills to make some sweet dishes to teammates......priority #1 for a good PG....which I think he is, and glad we have him, so don't think I'm getting down on the guy. I bet he's made zillions of nice assists to teammates....I just think that should be shown as well.
He'll do just fine.
Antonio Barton avg 15 pts. and 7 assist per game. He is a player.

I love it !!

And he'll pick up some new moves playing with and practicing against JJ, a small guard already known for his array of moves to get to the glass and finish.
Depending on how he does this year, he could move up to a 4-star IMO.
that video was here a week ago friend

Link friend.
He appears to love driving and finishing with some type of unorthodox layup...From the vid, it looks like he's approaching 4 star level..
