Scouting Report
Brings all the tools needed to be an elite NBA shooting guard: fearless scoring ability, a smooth and accurate outside jumper, and explosive leaping and finishing ability. Plays much bigger than his size. Excellent either spotting up, creating his own shot, or soaring to the hoop for dunks. Would benefit by developing his mid-range game, as his field-goal percentage is affected by either launching too many threes or forcing drives. Could be more of a steals factor. Needs to pass the ball a little more in the NBA than he did in college. Maturity and intensity are question marks.
Long Range Potential: Streaky but super-athletic shooting guard with some starter tools.
