Scouting Report
More than justified his name when healthy, bringing elite jets and quickness to the court. Showed a knack for steals, was very good in transition, and excelled at pushing the ball. Was highly injury-prone. His diminutive stature made him an easy target for post-ups. Tried to incorporate an outside shot to his game but it was unreliable.
Long Range Potential: Speedy veteran point guard.
