Scouting Report
Averaged 16 points per game in his two seasons at the University of Washington and was one of the best players to ever play for that institution. Can shoot the three-ball with aplomb and is an overall scoring menace from the field when on top of his game. Needs to become a better defender in the NBA. In order to do that, he could stand to add more bulk and become stronger physically. Also needs to become more involved in the game when he is not shooting the basket.
Long Range Potential: Depth guard.
