I feel like Taylor should be getting more ink. He’s a young man that I know very well, and I think that I know his game very well too. Taylor and his game are both next level. He can initiate the offense with the pass and by attacking the defense off the bounce. Taylor has the ability to play at any pace as well. He’s very comfortable playing over top of the defense.
