Skills
Physical Tools
Long and springy athlete. Excellent explosion vertically.
Quick when changing directions, very quick first step and acceleration.
Strong chest and arms, holds ground well with his lower body but long strides make him more susceptible to contact on the move.
Excellent rebounder for his size/position on both ends.
Passing
Can pass on the move, find teammates in transition and around the basket.
Allows defense to speed him up and force inaccurate passes.
Struggles to make plays off of screens. Doesn’t have the patience or control of tempo.
Makes smart reads immediately off the catch.
Shooting
Has cut out the unnecessary upper body movement from his shot but it’s still a work in progress.
He still has a slight valgus knee that pops up on movement shooting. As a result, he doesn’t consistently extend up through his shot.
He’s able to create shots off movement but isn’t yet able to knock them down enough to shoot them more often.
Driving
Quick slasher with a great first step to get by any defender. Solid ball handler but quickness is what sets him apart.
Can be physical around the rim, uses his body and agility to get angles.
Takes long strides, can get pushed around going towards the basket.
Good body control and touch from tough angles, frequently finishes through fouls.
Excellent scorer and finisher in transition.
Defense
Long strides to stay in front of the ball, active hands on the ball.
Engaged off the ball, plays passing lanes to get steals and create transition opportunities on the other end.
