That's not how it works - getting outright denied admissions. The Ivy basketball world is tiny, nothing is secret. The fact is Dartmouth MBB doesn't even bother recruiting certain players - either because their AAU/HS coach tells Dartmouth coaches not to bother or the coaches themselves know not to bother. The coaches know ahead of time, based on their history of recruiting, which kids can and cannot expect to get help from admissions.

As well, Dartmouth is not known for winning basketball or a place that values winning basketball, so top kids who have the grades to get into an Ivy and want to win games aren't even going to consider Dartmouth. I personally know kids who played at the top Ivys and none of the ever gave going to Hanover a thought.
