2016 Draft Profile - Jalen Brunson
Strengths : Jalen Brunson is one of the more pure point guards in this draft, who does a great job at balancing scoring with playmaking. Not only does he have the skills, but mentally he’s a high IQ player who makes great decisions and rarely turns the ball over.Brunson is an excellent ball-handler who does a great job of changing speeds to get to his spots on the floor. He is great on the pick-and-roll and knows when to be aggressive and when to back off.
Scoring-wise, he has a number of floaters and mid-range jumpers that he converts. He is also a more than capable set shooter with range out to the three-point line. He never shies away from the big moment and wants the ball in his hands down the stretch.
Weaknesses : Brunson’s physical tools are a worry. He has decent size for a point guard, but has average length. He is also just an ok athlete, which brings about a lot of questions about whether he will be able to defend NBA point guards.
He will also need to improve his consistency on his shots off the dribble. He is capable of making them, but can get cold at times and as someone who will have the ball in his hands, he will need to be a threat both scoring and passing at all times.
