College career


Over his four-year Buffalo career, Skeete played for three different head coaches. As a freshman, Skeete was named to the Mid-American Conference (MAC) All-Freshman Team. He had 18 points in a game against Akron that broke the Zips' 18-game winning streak. As a sophomore, Skeete moved to shooting guard to allow Shannon Evans to play point.[1] Buffalo went 23-10 in his junior season and reached the NCAA Tournament before bowing out to West Virginia, a game in which Skeete finished scoreless. He averaged 9.1 points per game on the year.[2] He helped persuade the school to hire Nate Oats as coach after Bobby Hurley left the program.[1] Skeete averaged 7.9 points, 3.2 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game as a senior.[3] Skeete graduated with a degree in communications.[1]


Professional career


Skeete signed with the Cape Breton Highlanders, an expansion franchise in NBL Canada, in November 2016.[3] The following season, Skeete signed with the St. John's Edge. Edge fans would frequently cheer "Skeete" at games due to its regional slang.[4]

In 2020, Skeete joined the Sudbury Five. He averaged 9.7 points, 3.2 rebounds, and 2.0 assists per game, earning Second Team All-Canadian honors.[5]
