Matthew Maurer – 2/2/2007
Weaknesses: Shot selection at times can be questionable Would benefit his game if he utilized the mid-range shot more Settles too much with shooting from the perimeter mostly from the three point shot Needs to work on taking care of the ball better as he can get careless Has a habit of getting out of control on his drives Needs to move better without the ball has a tendency to stand around a little Defensively Byars is solid but can reach a little too much on defense trying to get the quick steal Doesnt explode on his first step which could be the reason why he doesnt always get full separation from his defender Byars isnt always consistent in games as he can go through periods where he is aggressive and dominates and then there are times he isnt Surprisingly despite his shooting touch he is a below average free throw shooter
