   A superior athlete... Very quick and explosive... Great first step... Gets to the basket like very few others... Very good defender... Plays both guard positions... Great with the stop-and-pop mid-range jumper... Has improved his playmaking skills, but plays selfish sometimes... Does not always make good decisions... Shooting percentages from beyond the arc are subpar... Turnover prone.
