Scouting Report

Assets
  • The whole package: a gifted scorer from all over the court, a team-first passer, and an above-average rebounder and defender. Also one of the most clutch stars in the NBA.
Flaws
  • Turnovers have always been an issue. Can be streaky. As he has aged, his defense has dropped off a little.
Career Potential
  • Slightly-declining clutch superstar.
