Scouting Report
A skilled, instinctive, electric scorer: takes over games from the inside, outside, and mid-range. A supreme athlete with a very high basketball I.Q.: he passes well, steals the ball regularly, and hits consistently from the perimeter. Gutsy and intense. Highly proven in Europe. Hasn't found his niche in the NBA. His wiry frame could use a little more muscle in order to put up with the physical NBA game. Additionally, he can be streaky and he sometimes settles for the three too easily. Gets unhappy when not in a prominent role.
Long Range Potential: Electric playmaking combo guard / swingman, with star tools.
