Positives

-Amazing playmaker, assist numbers don''t show how good he was, thrived in the pick and roll and kicking out to shooters, unselfish in transition, wraparounds, pocket passes, cross court passes, lobs, has it all in his arsenal, very patient and hard to speed up, dealt well with double teams all year

-Used his body well in the paint, generally a good finisher, especially with the right hand floater/hook shot, will be a weapon in transition of a rebound

-Solid postup game, especially with the right hook shot, can take advantage of smaller guards and can pass out of double teams in the post

-Decent shot creating potential, his height + stepbacks/sidesteps/hesitations/pull back dribbles could make him really hard to guard

-Jumpshot was really good, hit great percentages off the catch and off the dribble, mechanics and FT% point to a good shooter in the league, has potential to be a movement shooter, hit a few off screens or pick and pop''s

-Uses his size/strength/length on on-ball defense, when locked in can stay with guards, defend wings well and get physical down low with big men, great instincts, especially off-ball as a help defender, routinely contested, drew charges, blocked shots or got into passing lanes

-Very clutch, wants the ball, even when he doesn''t have it going (ex. second Texas game)

-Great leadership by what we''ve seen, never had poor body language after a teammate mistake, and really wanted to succeed on Oklahoma State

Negatives

-Not an explosive athlete, average burst, can lead to lowering his shoulder and getting called for offensive fouls, slow driver and can struggle driving past bigs switched onto him

-High dribbler, handles need to be tighter, especially because of his lack of burst

-Does need to improve accuracy on his passes a bit

-Needs to be a bit more focused and careful with the ball, decision making had some rough moments but normal for the engine of a badly spaced offensive team

-Should improve effort defensively, looked a bit zoned out, most likely will improve with reduced offensive role

-Tended to be a bit passive in the first halves of games, needs to be assertive from the jump

Likely range: 1-2
