Lleyton’s junior season hinges on translating his summer three-point work and playmaking into game flow. He’s sharpened his already tough catch-and-shoot mechanics and added a few pounds to absorb contact at the rim. On defense, Weaver’s foot speed shows improvement; he’s now a more reliable close-out stopper who can switch across perimeter spots.

Weaver’s next step is all about table setting. Known for his reliable shooting stroke, he’s now being asked to take control as a ball-handler, reading help, initiating sets, and finding the right play without forcing pace.

Weaver is showcasing that he is more than just a skilled perimeter shooter. He has become a much better playmaker over the summer. In the first couple of games at camp, I noticed him controlling the offense a lot more than before, bringing the ball up and setting the table on offense. He has got more of a wiggle to him with the ball in hand now, creating space off the bounce and attacking closeouts. His intermediate game shows more patience now to find high-quality looks or assists.

Weaver is a sniper from beyond the arc. He shoots accurately on all types of looks from outside. He can knock down shots off the bounce or the catch and facilitates the ball unselfishly to get others involved on offense. He spaces the floor well and understands how to move without the ball. He put together a solid weekend with 26 and 27 points in back-to-back games, lighting it up.

Weaver is a guard to watch for Jonesboro. He is a sharpshooting swingman with long arms and good off-ball movement. He can knock down shots from deep with accuracy as a spot-up threat and has a knack for one-dribble pull-up shots. He is good at relocating into open spots on offense without the ball.
