He's a shutdown defender who can legitimately guard any position on the floor. His mix of length, tenacity, and footwork is elite and he uses all his tools to full effect on 'D.' Offensively he's an athletic, high-flying slasher who has developed excellent shooting range. He additionally is very good on free throws. High-motor, and a winner. While a good shooter and finisher, on offense he's not much of a shot creator or passer. And while dominant and versatile on defense he isn't a very strong rebounder for his size (in part because he lacks the muscle mass to gain consistent position under the hoop).
Long Range Potential: Top-tier '3-and-D' wing player with good starter tools.
