Scouting Report
Already a top-tier player all-round: an excellent scorer, defender, and playmaker. Phenomenally athletic: plays with elite balance, fluidity, quickness, and agility. Also an elite leaper whose wingspan helps him play much bigger than his size. A constant steals threat. Operates smoothly at high speed, and can play either guard spot. Streaky as a shooter (especially from the 3-point arc) and must work on improving his shot selection to ensure a higher field goal percentage. He's not yet the rebounder he can be considering his physical tools.
Long Range Potential: Super-athletic, smooth combo guard with star tools.
