NBA Comparison: Kenny Anderson
Strengths: Tremendous lefty point guard with a scary package of speed, athleticism, point guard skills and tenacity ... A natural. Really understands how to play the point guard position, the type who can penetrate at will and create offense for everyone ... Exceptional vision and passing ability ... Makes everyone around him better ... His speed pushing the ball up the floor is at an elite level ... Very feisty, a fighter, won't back down to anyone ... Has a great toughness and competitiveness about him ... A spectacular leaper, who regularly converts backdoor alley oops ... Shows a solid outside and mid range jump shot ... Creates very well off the dribble and gets to the rim well due to his explosive first step ...

Weaknesses: Desperately needs to add muscle mass to his body ... Right now his body is about 20-25 pounds too light ... He can be pushed around by bigger and stronger guards, and is less effective at penetrating because he can't absorb contact ... He may struggle to put much strength and weight on, as he appears to have a naturally skinny body ... Can improve upon his offensive game. His jump shot and decision making are good but he'll need to develop those skills further ... Inexperience. He still must prove himself on the college level ...

Notes: One of the top players in his class ... His AAU team (The SoCal All Stars) was undefeated in the summer of 2006 with an All Star lineup including Jennings, Kevin Love, Renardo Sidney, Taylor King and Daniel Hackett.
