23p 2r 1a vs Thrill
-Phillips has grown a bit over the past year and it has given him more confidence initiating contact on drives to the rim and has enabled him to be a much better finisher. Loved the growth as well as an off-ball cutter from the corners that can dive to the rim to finish alley-oop lobs or serve as a connector on the move as an offensive player that opposing defenses need to mark. Phillips scored off several extension layups after blowing by his matchup, drove straight down the gut off a side ball screen and punched a dunk home, threw a beautiful crosscourt 1-handed dime to the shooter, hit a turn-around jumper from the elbow, euro-stepped around a defender to avoid the charge and score at the rim, and cut to space to create release valves for teammates that picked up their dribble. A much more well-rounded approach should only increase his long-term value as a prospect.
