Solid handles. Shifty moves off the dribble and was very adept at getting downhill. Showed an advanced ability to finish in traffic by either absorbing contact to create space or using the basket as a shield to finish on the other side of the rim. He showed some ability to be a 3-level scorer hitting shots from three or pump faking and hitting the mid-range, hitting a floater when the lane was clogged, and demonstrating craftiness around the rim.
