Joseph was one of shiftiest PG’s at the event. Outstanding change of pace, controlled tempo, and shot lights out from deep. Displayed his talents on both ends. Smooth ball handler with a good feel and instincts as a scorer, defensively challenges shots inside/outside. Navigates the fast real after securing rebounds.

Joseph is a rugged lead guard who thrives heading downhill to the basket. He plays the game with one speed right now, so that could be an area of opportunity in reading defenses in the futures and knowing where and how to attack but at this point, his frame can take the contact and still allow him to finish strong at the rim or stop on a dime in the paint and drop a floater in.
