Additional Information
| Other information / Videos Links | I believe i have a high IQ for the game, am very versatile all-round player with the skills and ability to play 1-3 on both ends of the floor. My key strengths is the ability to see the floor, read the game and create for myself and others. I believe I am above-average shooter with the ability to shoot the 3 at a good percentage . I am also comfortable putting the ball on the floor and getting to the rim or creating for others. These skills along with my elite basketball IQ provide the ability to make players around me better. I am a leader both on and off the court. I am a reliable teammate, with a passionate work ethic and loves being in the gym on a daily basis and am determined to be a successful college player, and will do whatever it takes to get there. While I have the ability to create and score for myself, perhaps my biggest strength is as a playmaker with a pass-first mentality and am always looking to find the open man and do all the intangibles that make me and my teammates better. |
