Scouting Report
Made the difficult play look easy: gifted as a ballhandler and passer, with uncanny vision and on-court instincts. Supremely creative both one-on-one and as a distributor. Great at breaking down defenses, poaching steals, and pushing the break. A fearless shooter from all over. Played out of control too often, sometimes looking for the big and/or flashy play rather than the high-percentage one (settling too much for the three-pointer). Was injury-prone.
Long Range Potential: Super-creative star playmaking point guard.
