Big Board Rankings

Strengths

• "Good shooter who hit 37 percent of his 3s and 81 percent of his free throws in three seasons at Creighton

• and got notably better each season. He’s at his best off the catch

• though he can also drain 3s off one or two dribbles."

• "Smart player who limits turnovers; he also makes plays that go beyond the box score by cutting or relocating to create proper spacing for his team."

• "If his handle keeps getting better

• he has the skills to run more point in the NBA; he’s a secondary ball handler in the pick-and-roll who can score from each level."

• "Plays extremely hard. He runs the floor

• crashes the glass

• dives for loose balls

• and chases down players on the break."

• "High-level on-ball defender who disturbs smaller opponents with his length

• quickness

• and instinctual positioning. He gets in their face and moves well laterally to contain penetration."

• "Excellent off-ball defender who busts plays with his instincts and navigates screens as if he knows the opponent’s entire playbook."

• "Fearless 3-point shooter"

• "Avoids turnovers"

• "Gets steals on defense"

Areas to Improve

• "Basic ball handler without an elite first step or great burst; he needs to add more manipulative moves to improve his shot-creation ability."

• "Subpar finisher who lacks an off-hand."

• "A bit undersized to contain larger wings and forwards

• which could limit his defensive versatility since they can shoot over him."

• "Small for an NBA shooting guard"

• "Inefficient 2-point scorer"

• "Needs to develop as a distributor"
