It was Diamond DeShields who persuaded her mother to move to Norcross, Georgia so she could attend Norcross High School. It was DeShields who engineered a historic recruiting class to UNC, only to leave a year later to transfer to Tennessee. It was DeShields who left Tennessee, too. Now, though, as a rising WNBA star, DeShields has very little control.
