Scouting Report
Could dominate as a scorer, passer and defender, when healthy. Excelled at keying the break with steals, was electric in the open court and was a fantastic leaper who finished well above the rim on a regular basis. Brought a rare mix of speed, explosive athleticism and length to the point guard position. Was also a leader who was not afraid to take big shots. Was prone to turnovers. His shooting stroke from outside was inconsistent at times. Injuries wreaked havoc with his career, so his peak as a star in the NBA did not last very long.
Long Range Potential: Outstanding point guard (when healthy).
