NBA Comparison: Mike Miller
Strengths: A very dynamic offensive player...Likes to hit jumpshots off screens, off the curl, face
up, step-back fall-away, pull-up from three, runners, in any which way possible...Good scoring mentality and he has a NBA-ready
scoring game...Range from everywhere and hits at a high clip...Often surprises his opponents by taking shots with high level
of difficulty, yet he can make them...Good ballhandling skills when he is running the offense for himself...Very clutch player,
responds well in the face of adversity...Has good height and weight for his position...Experienced and has been through the
big games...
Weakneses: Scoring is about the only thing that he knows...Low basketball IQ, rarely passes the ball,
and even though he hits at a high clip, it would be nice to see if he gets his teammates involved...He jacks up roughly 2/5s
of his team's shots each game...Rarely gets to the line and attacks the basket...Lacks athleticism, quite a "soft" player...Was
a standout during his freshman year, but hasn't improved much since...Teammates have coaxed him to pass the ball but he hasn't
even done such a simple task yet...With his lack of athleticism/poor judgment he will probably amount to a role player in
the next level, but there are lingering questions about whether he can switch his mentality...Rarely looks to rebound or play
defense...Gets burned on defense very often due to poor lateral movement...Has been injured in the past, but that seems to
all gone now...
--Marco Green 1/7
