Coleman can also score in the mid-range and rises up nicely on his jumper. He also has the ability to play off the ball and slides his feet on the defensive end.

Davis is one of the craftier guards in the class and should put his game on full display this winter. The 5'9 guard has a tight handle, which he uses to blow by his defender and can finish in a number of ways around the rim. Davis rarely gets rattled by on-ball pressure and threads passes to his open teammates in the half court. He pushes the pace well in transition and gets deflections on the defensive end. Davis is a shifty guard prospect who should make plays with the ball in his hands throughout the course of the season.
