Scouting Report

Assets
  • Piatkowski has one of the sweetest shooting strokes in the league, and he can drop the three-pointer with regularity, meaning he can score in bunches.
Flaws
  • A pure set shooter, but not much of a threat to drive to the basket. Although he can make the pass, he gives up the ball almost as often.
Career Potential
  • A solid long-range specialist.
