Scouting Report

Assets
  • One of the NBA's greatest-ever on-court leaders: makes everyone he plays with better. Has uncanny vision, anticipation, ball-handling, and passing skills. Arguably the league's most accurate perimeter & free-throw shooter ever.
Flaws
  • Commits huge turnover totals. More quick than he is fast. Can be posted up on defense and doesn't steal the ball as much as he could / should (although he does a great job taking charges).
Career Potential
  • Superstar point guard & future Hall of Famer.
