Scouting Report
His backcourt skill-set is very well-rounded: he can score capably (either penetrating to the basket or shooting from the arc), is a heads-up distributor who looks for his teammates, and he has good length and instincts for defense. Versatile: boasts enough size and skill to play regularly at either point guard or shooting guard. A bit of a late bloomer and may not have significant development upside. Sometimes forces things on the offensive end, either shooting too quickly or trying to push the ball into traffic. While athletic he too often settles for floaters and off-balance layups rather than going hard to the hole.
Long Range Potential: Smooth, skilled combo guard with rotational tools.
