Scouting Report
Brings a well-rounded offensive game to the small forward and 2-guard spots. Can score consistently from the mid-range, but also does a nice job going to the hoop and drawing fouls. Solid as a passer and rebounder. Not very explosive, limiting him somewhat defensively. Needs to keep working on his outside shooting stroke (in terms of both accuracy and timing). Can be turnover-prone.
Long Range Potential: Solid scoring rotational swingman.
