Scouting Report
A good scorer with an impressive old-school approach: can hit jumpers from all over the court, and knows how to find his own shot in the mid-range. Possesses several nice fakes, spins, and turnaround moves to get his shot off. Fairly long and athletic too, factors helping him shoot over opponents. Doesn't make the most of his athleticism, reach, or length on the defensive end. Is not a high-flying finisher, which hurts his field goal percentage. For a jump-shot-first player he's streaky from the 3-point arc. Needs more consistency overall, and can be more of a passer.
Long Range Potential: Solid scoring jump-shooting wing.
