Scouting Report
Has excellent size for a guard and can play either at the point or as a two-guard at the highest level, which adds to his overall value. Is basically a jack-of-all-trades type without any singular dominant quality. Is a pretty good passer, a solid shooter and decent defender. Needs more bulk and strength to become better at going up against bigger, stronger players in the NBA. Is not a go-to scorer at the highest level but complements talented players on the court very well.
Long Range Potential: Solid, versatile combo guard with upside.
