Scouting Report

Assets
  • A superb natural athlete who can jump over most defenders, and is a constant threat for big dunks. Excels in an up-tempo / transition game, running the break and filling the lane. Poaches steals to initiate breaks, and can run the point.
Flaws
  • Despite excellent length, a bit small for a 2-guard. When he's kept out of the lane he struggles to hit outside shots, and hasn't developed a good 3-point stroke despite increased attempts from the arc.
Career Potential
  • Underrated all-round guard.
  • Awards2009NBA - Member of NBA Championship Team2008NBA - Member of NBA Championship Team
