A
backcourt player with great leadership qualities and the ability to
dominate a game. Played in a up-tempo environment but has the
ability to run the half court show. An excellent scorer out
out of the PG spot, he possess both the ability to penetrate into
the lane and draw defenders for the easy dish, finish himself or
kick it to the perimeter without getting out of control. He
has 'pass-first' mentality but often finds himself in positions
where he is forced to score for the team benefit. A
tenacious on ball defender he will force turnovers on his own and is
very active in the passing lanes. A solid rebounder
out of the back court he will consistently push his big men to grab
boards or he will get them himself. Understands the game
well and knows when to push the ball and when to set the table.
