Strong Points
This Kid Plays with heart, hustle, and determination despite being most of the time the smallest player on the floor. He has the abilities to do all most everything on both ends of the floor and he makes players beat him by having to play much harder than they planned to on the offensive end because this kind is a hard noise defender and will not let up until his team has the ball. Good leadership ability can make players better and can get them into the flow of the game as easy as shooting the shot himself
Weak Points
Struggles at times with scoring because of his height disadvantage and has the tendencey to walk because of fatigue, Has good form but at times bad release on his jump shot and that could spell a problem if it is not improved. He runs the floor but doesn't get back as quickly as he he does when on a breakaway.He is a very Passionate player and sometimes gets so wrapped up in the game that he losses his head and lets his emotions get the best of him. has to improve his point guard skills but has the tools to get it done
Upside & Potential
Has the determination that stars have and will work hard for whatever he wants and showcases some nice moves driving to the basket and has proven that he can play with the big boys keep working had and ward could be in a suit in june in an NBA draft
