Scouting Report

Assets
  • A superb man-to-man defender and a clutch outside shooter. Limits turnovers and generally executes on offense (especially on free throws). A natural leader on and off the court. A winner.
Flaws
  • He's not a natural distributor and is more a shooting guard in a point-guard's frame. Despite his clutch ability he's not quite as good a perimeter shooter when things aren't as high-pressure. Has never been much of a rebounder.
Career Potential
  • Starting point guard.
