NBA Comparison: Lorenzo Brown

Strengths: As a 6-4 PG, with a 6-5 wingspan, he has very good size for the position and a solid frame on which he can put on some additional muscle … This is combined with impressive speed and athleticism … By European standards, he’s really explosive, plays above the rim, and has a very fast first step … He’s able to use his quickness in the half-court game to beat the his defender and is really effective in transition … His shot mechanics are improved and he definitely has shown range and a reliable pull-up jumper … Shows solid passing instincts, unselfish, and looks for teammates when the defense collapses after his first step … His athletic skills can be used on the defensive side, where he puts pressure on opponents and makes quick recoveries and closeouts … Still seems to be improving and could have some upside left to develop in terms of skills: Ball handling and passing are average but show room for improvement …

Weaknesses: At 180 lbs, he’s still skinny, and needs to put some time into the weight room, and add strength, especially to his upper body … He lacks elite court vision and his decision-making definitely needs improvement, including pace management during the game … This is leading to frequent turnovers, which are often higher than his assists … Definitely not a pass first point guard since he tends to force shots and rely too much on his outside shot, which is definitely inconsistent. Will need to become a better vocal leader …

Notes: In the 2015-16 season, Michineau helped Chalon advance to the Final Four of the FIBA Europe Cup and to a solid season in French first division, when he had 7.3 points 1.7 assists of average.
