Scouting Report

Assets
  • A natural scorer. Can hit from all over the offensive zone, and is highly accurate from 3-point range. Knows the value of drawing fouls and hits his freebies. Can take over games when he gets hot. Doesn't commit many turnovers.
Flaws
  • A defensive liability, and he has never shown major effort in his own end or on the boards. His shoot-first mentality can lead to defenders keying on him. Injuries have been a career-long issue.
Career Potential
  • Sixth man / perimeter scorer.
