Scouting Report
A very good athlete who brought nice size and a lot of versatility. A good outside shooter with clutch ability, and an underrated defender. Also provided a professional and veteran locker room presence. Injuries were a career-long issue. Was never much of a passer. Over time, his game gravitated mostly to the perimeter.
Long Range Potential: Above-average '3-and-D' man with good leadership ability.
