Strengths: Hard-nosed Chi-town point guard, has an older brother Jannero in the NBA, and he's the more athletic of the siblings ... Solid size at point guard position at 6-2, 219 ... Great leaping ability especially in the open court ... Has a knack for rising and flushing over much taller defenders for highlight reel dunks ... Attacks rim with tenacity and uses his upper body strength to shield off opponents ... Creative ballhandler with a deadly crossover dribble and crowd-aweing moves ... Deadly first step off the dribble ... Developing passer who raised his average to a solid 6+ asts/game with 2-1 turnover ratio ... Unselfish player who seems to have bought into Mark Few's coaching philosophy ... Solid defensively with potential to become a defensive factor ... Works hard on defense and anticipates well averaging 1.4 steals per contest ... Has made a solid transition from shooting guard to point guard position ...
Weaknesses: Point guard skills still need a lot of work ... Will likely always be more of a scoring point ... Below average shooter especially from 3-point range at 25% ... Free throw numbers also aren't great at 67% ... Can be out of control and force unnecessary shots at times ... Sometimes seems to switch back to his playing days as a shooting guard ... Can be turnover prone at 3.3/gm ... Seems to be too right hand dependent ... A very intriguing prospect with his size and athleticism at point guard, just needs to learn to slow it down and run the show more under control yet attack when necessary ... Development (particularly PG skills) in 2008-2009 season will be key to draft stock ...
