NBA Comparison: Gerald Green (less athletic)

Strengths: Shooting guard with good size and length for his position … He is a nice athlete and has a quick and long first step … He is a very aggressive player looking to attack off the dribble and break his defender down … Using a nice mix of moves with the ball, he is able to utilize his first step to get into the paint ... Has the athleticism and size to finish at the hoop or draw contact and get to the line ... Has a nice outside jumper and is very dangerous from deep ... His midrange game is very effective, as he can get into the paint and elevate for a smooth and in rhythm dribble jumper ... Operates well without the ball, reading screens and getting himself open ... Solid rebounder on both ends ... Very unselfish player, looks to make the extra pass and get his teammates involved ... Extremely dangerous getting into the passing lanes ...

Weaknesses: One of the most turnover prone players in the nation ... Plays out of control and makes extremely poor decisions with the ball ... Over penetrates and allows himself to be trapped ... Doesn't have great body strength, allowing stronger defenders to get into his body and turn him out of driving lanes ... Volume shooter and a very streaky one as well, he needs a lot of shots to be effective from deep ...
