Scouting Report

Assets
  • A pure and natural scorer. Physical, fearless, and can hit from anywhere on the floor. Also a good distributor, and plays strong defense (piling up steals). Clutch, and a charismatic leader.
Flaws
  • Commits a lot of turnovers. While a superb shooter, he sometimes favors the outside game too much, leading to lower field goal percentages than he's capable of.
Career Potential
  • All-Star guard / scoring title contender.
