A smooth operator with the ball in his hands, he showed great control both in the half-court and in transition. With a strong, solid frame, he was able to absorb contact on downhill drives and still finish plays. Offensively, he scored it from all three levels—knocking down threes, hitting mid-range shots, and finishing above the rim.
