Strengths: Has the size that the NBA covets at the point guard position Ball handling ability is superb. He uses a number of crossovers and between the leg dribbles to get separation from his defender Unselfish player who has a pass first mentality Owns above average court vision and has improved on controlling the tempo Excels at creating scoring for his teammates off the drive and dish Possesses three point range on his jumpshot For his height, has great mobility and leaping ability Is an excellent finisher and can dunk with flair Size creates mismatches as he can shoot over most guards .

Weaknesses: Still lacks upper body strength which would benefit him greatly on both ends of the floor Must continue to improve on his lateral quickness as quicker guards can give him trouble At times he fails to protect the ball, especially when going for the spectacular play Perimeter shooting has shown improvement but still remains a work in progress, particularly his shooting mechanics Yue must improve on moving without the ball as he has a habit of standing around Lacks the post moves to take full advantage of mismatches Defers too much to his teammates and can be unselfish to a fault Mid range game remains underutilized, either he drives or shoots the three. There is no in between jumper Struggles to maintain his dribble when pressured by quick and aggressive defenders It remains unclear what position he will play in the NBA: Hes slow for the point guard position and lacks shooting ability for the two guard
