He still works the post area, but he's figured out how to use his strength and athleticism on the court. Using a dribble or two, finishing strong at the rim in transition. He'll shoot his jumper.

He's that speedy under 6'0 guard that's using his handles, speed, and vision to break down defenders, get into the paint and find the right guys who can put the ball in the basket. He can be a disruptor on defense with his quickness, he can score too.
