Grear is a remarkably consistent and gifted guard with positional size to go with his feel for the game. Grear is a big PG that plays the game with a very cerebral approach. Regardless of the pace of the game, Grear will find a way to be impactful. His ability to make plays for others is always going to be his calling card but his bag of tricks as a self creator continues to evolve. He does a great job using his strength to create space on the inside when guarded by smaller guards. He’s also comfortable operating in multiple areas of the floor as the focal point of the offense. This KOC 2028 group was one of NC’s top independent groups last season and looks to be that way again. Grear is a guy that will only gain value as I see his production translating to the older age groups/higher levels of competition. He might not be the most explosive or flashy guy but his game is legit, his production is undeniable, and he checks so many boxes coaches are looking for in next level players.
