Outlook

A player possessing an extremely high basketball IQ.  Great outside shooting touch that make teams pay if he gets a clean look.  Can put it on the floor, and is a great passer.  Has the ability to play any of the backcourt spots and also move to the small forward position.  Possesses deep range out past the NBA three point line.  Maurice  is the ultimate team player to make everybody else around him better.  He is an underrated defender who often will shut down the opposing team's best player.  Operates like a second point guard on the floor setting everything up for easy finishes for his teammates and then scoring when necessary.  Inspiring leader that is a "do everything" player on the court.
