Local Sports Mar 20, 2023 Sean Williams/MDN – Darik Dissette (13) of Minot High rises for a jump shot during a game at Magic City Campus earlier this year. In a week that saw Minot High senior Darik Dissette earn the Gatorade Player of the Year award, the accolades kept coming. On Saturday night during the Class B Boys Basketball State Tournament, it was announced that Dissette was named North Dakota's Mr. Basketball for the 2022-23 season. Among a group of six finalists that consisted of Tyson Enget (Powers Lake-Burke Central), Ayden Stainbrook (North Border), Zach Kraft (Grand Forks Red River), Alex Dvorak (Dickinson), and Ryan Erikson (Century), Dissette received all 27 first-place votes and was the unanimous winner.
