NBA Comparison: Brain Shaw
Strengths: 2-guard with excellent shooting ability. Has a nose for scoring and does so in a varety of ways ... Has soft touch on his shot and good range ... Uses the jabstep to create space for jumpshots well ... Attacks the basket off the dribble ... Gets to the line a lot where he capitalizes well (83 ft%) ... His ability to shoot from outside as well as drive to the basket makes him a tough assignment to defend ... Displays a solid ability to score even with opposing teams focusing their defenses on him ... Solid athletically with good length. Nothing extraordinary but has solid speed and agility ... A good defender. Quick hands and feet and a solid effort level ... Vision and ball handling ability are decent ...

Weaknesses: Lacks a huge frame and great body strength ... Would be able to finish at the rim and be a more dangerous slasher if he could add more body strength ... Added strength would give him better balance as well as increase his shooting range ... Doesn't have wide shoulders and appers to be a guy who will always be on the skinny side ... His statistics are impressive, but diminished playing in the Big West ... Needs to cut down on turnovers ... His ability to create off the dribble is somewhat limited by an average first step ... Not especially explosive or fast ...

Notes: Leading scorer in the Big West Conference and likely 2007-08 player of the year ... One of the top 3 point % shooters in the nation ...
