2007 Draft Profile
Excellent court vision; sees the floor with ease. Smart player who doesn’t force things, waits and lets the game come to him. Possesses the ball handling ability to take most opposing forwards to the basket. Is a tremendous passer, able to make impressive plays, and is an unselfish player who gets his teammates involved in the offense. An excellent athlete who is a great finisher in transition. He possesses long arms and a quickness which enables him to disrupt passing lanes. Is an adequate shot blocker, who is also a threat as a help defender thanks to his solid lateral movement. Must continue to increase his upper body strength to aid him in finishing after contact occurs. His perimeter shooting is a work in progress while he has the ability, and he remains streaky. Improving his ‘back to the basket skills’ would allow him to expand his offensive game. Free throw shooting continues to improve but remains a work in progress.
