Where 18 boards rank this prospect
PHYSICAL - Weak for a guard - Has good short distance burst but not the best speed for a guard SKILLS - Keeps his dribble alive as long as possible - Has a lead guard handle - Has patience with the ball but hallucinates openings that don't exist (especially with passes) - Draws foul on dribble using defender to the side or behind which may not translate directly SHOOTING - Ok speed jumper - Good height on release point - Not the most elevation on jumper - Has a hitch at the top - Pull up middy is great for drawing fouls and looks more comfortable from closer FINISHING - Only gets above the rim in transition on occasion - Finishes through contact solidly - Weak but somewhat varied finisher PASSING - Looks for kick out passes in all situations - Can pass in the air and with some disguise - Smart passer when the opportunity presents itself - Lob passing is somewhat creative and accurate with good vision and processing - Hits cutters and some rollers but needs more p&r polishing - Quick to pass and willing DEFENSE - Gets pushed around even by guards - Good footwork to try to wall off - Not very vertical - Gets beat off ball at times - Active feet and effort but gambles a bit - Clearly a bit of a dirty player as well
