About Michael

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

I am a high-IQ, three-level scoring guard with elite shiftiness and change of pace. I excel at manipulating the pick-and-roll to create high-percentage looks for myself and my teammates. I play with a quick twitch on both ends of the floor, using my range to stretch the defense and my vision to facilitate the offense.

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

I play with a 'coach on the floor' mentality, always looking to stay one step ahead of the opposition.

This 'underdog' mentality has taught me resilience and the importance of focusing on the details that win games, proving that impact isn't just measured by hei

What type of college are you looking for?

I am looking for a program with a high-level competitive culture that values disciplined, high-IQ basketball. Ideally, I am searching for a system that utilizes a creative backcourt and prioritizes floor spacing, allowing me to use my shooting gravity and playmaking to create advantages.
