Defensive, hustle guard

Iman Shumpert

Not a player you’d describe as ‘high feel’. He’s much more effective playing with the offense and doing the little things - using his athleticism to defend tight, grab boards and make defensive plays. However, his awareness on both ends is lacking. I think he’s driven to score, but he doesn’t have the handle or shot to complete that just yet. Quite out of control on his drives, just had a lot of improvement to make. However, when he scales back, he is an effective player with upside potential.

Pros:

1. Great Hustle

2. High Motor

3. Good Rebounding for a guard

4. Good Defender

5. If jumper develops, one of the most valued archetypes

Cons:

1. Streaky Shooter

2. Doesn't get Many points outside of the paint

3. Lower Ceiling than other prospects

Pro Comp: Herb Jones, Josh Hart

Ceiling: Starter on a championship team Floor: Bench warmer, energy guy

Best Team Fits: Jazz, Trailblazers, Bucks, Clippers Calling Card: Hustle, Finishing

Athletic defensive guard

• All-Defensive ceiling - disruptive both on and off ball and a great rebounder for his size

• High-level motor

• Strong, powerful build and an explosive athlete

• Excellent slasher, driver and inside scorer; unphased by contact at the rim

• Solid mid-range and outside shooter, with the ceiling to improve

WEAKNESSES

• Still inconsistent from three

• Struggles to create off the dribble

• Height limits his overall ceiling as a SF & quickness limits his ceiling as a SG at the NBA level
