NBA Comparison: Shammond Williams

Strengths: Undersized 2-guard with excellent athleticism and scoring ability … Routinely makes highlight plays at the rim … Aggressive driving to the basket. Has excellent physical strength to absorb contact and finish off drives to the basket … An explosive leaper … Very fast in the open floor … He’s an excellent pull up shot off the dribble. Has a pure shot when he squares his feet and goes up balanced … Also displays the ability to create against bigger defenders … Solid spot up shooter. Uses picks well to create shots for himself …

Weaknesses:
Lacks a true position at 6’2 playing the shooting guard position … Struggles to make plays for others and run an offense … Much more comfortable off the ball. While he shows some vision and passing ability, he’s not a point guard and likely will struggle to play much there even in mop up duty … His lack of size forces him too often to attempt fadeaways instead of going straight up on outside shots … For such a good shooter, he should be more proficient from the free throw line. 70% in his junior year was a disappointment … Too often leaves his feet before passing, creating unnecessary turnovers … Playing in a small conference hurts his cause. Even though he’s a dominant player, he’s doing it mostly against inferior athletes …

Outlook: Could find a spot on an NBA roster as an instant offense guy but due to his size will likely struggle to defend and score against the elite 2gaurds at the next level. He would be ideal as an offguard in Europe.
