There were some really tough true PG’s I had the opportunity of seeing this weekend play. This young man certainly is on that list. Naturally competitive natured with disciplined composure. Really good to see the grit and scrappiness. Offensively was crafty against a lot of contact and pressure but maintained control to still orchestrate positive flow. Changes speeds while enduring contact in a press setting or in the lane on drives. Will pitch it ahead to get primary break points or can take it coast to coast himself if opportunity is there. Had an And1 put back off a miss and another And1 on a drive. A scrappy guard that will be good to see his stock continue to rise over the next year.
