Amaurys Fermin Represents the Dominican Republic at Centrobasket

Amaurys Fermin is doing his best to impress for the Dominican Republic National Team at Centrobasket this week in San Juan, Puerto Rico

Weeks removed from walking in Cal Poly’s 2012 graduation ceremony, point-guard Amaurys Fermin is happy to be where he is — a rookie on an up-and-coming national team trying to make its mark. Fermin has always been soft-spoken and humble — deflecting any praise to his Cal Poly teammates and coaches throughout last season — but he came off even more so during his recent interview with the Fansmanship podcast.

Fermin is a young guy trying to make an impression — a far cry from the leader and elder statesman role he played for the Mustangs a year ago. Playing with NBA stars like Francisco Garcia and Al Horford, Fermin is trying to make his mark as the Dominican Republic competes in Centrobasket this week.

Happy listening!
