5 - Deron Williams

NBA Comparison: Andre
Miller
Strengths: Overall floor general abilities are good … Strong
thick physique… Bulls his way to the hoop overpowering smaller and weaker
defenders… A good rebounder from the guard position with both size and strength…
Has good vision and sees the whole court, always finding open teammates… Very
poised and always under control… No wasted dribbles… Has a nice jumper…
Confident with the ball in his hands and wants the ball in crunch time… Can
create for himself and for his team off the dribble… Not flashy just gets the
job done…
Weaknesses: Speed is an issue as he’s not the quickest player
on the court … His thick body type can be much a weakness as a plus as it limits
his mobility … Lacks great open court speed and a quick first step … Relies
on strength and overall body size too much… Defending quicker players will be a
problem… A good defender, but will has lateral foot speed be an issue? … Can
get caught trying to do too much at times and fires up shots instead of getting
his teammates involved…
