Scouting Report
Was an above-average all-around player who did a nice job setting up his teammates and defending. Was long of limb, athletic and very versatile (capable of starting at small forward and both guard spots). Was a solid passer who took care of the ball. Usually hit his free throws. Was never a great rebounder. Saw his shooting percentage drop off significantly with advanced age, and he became fairly inconsistent overall (in part because he was prone to injuries) with time. Later on in his career, he became more of a role player.
Long Range Potential: Streaky, above-average swingman (when healthy).
