Scouting Report

Assets
  • Lightning quick and able to score as well as he passes, Paul is the kind of point guard who can truly run an offense. He also has very good decision-making skills and a nose for the ball on steals, qualities that make him an ideal on-court floor general.
Flaws
  • Size is an issue only because he is fearless going to the hoop and draws a lot of contact. That has led to injuries, and may become more of a factor as years go by.
Career Potential
  • All-Star point guard.
