Scouting Report

Assets
  • Arguably the most explosive leaper in basketball history. Incredibly athletic and blessed with long arms that help him defend, rebound, and shoot over defenders well. An elite scorer who's also an above-average passer.
Flaws
  • Over the years he has developed a habit of settling for too many ill-advised three-point attempts. Can be streaky. Has been criticized for sometimes being a 'me-first' player.
Career Potential
  • All-Star swingman.
