One advantage that he has is he jumps so high and releases the ball at the apex every single time so its even hard for bigger guards and forwards to affect his shots.
He's a special scorer, if he was 4 to 6 inches taller he would be a top 5 pick this year. His size will hurt him some but there have been some small guards that made it to the NBA so it can happen.
NBA teams still want guys who can defend. Like I said earlier, there isn't a lot of defense played all the time, but when it's crunch time or the playoffs, defense is absolutely played and you want guys that can give you that.
-He's a very good shooter.
-He can get to the rim, but he still needs work at finishing
-He needs to improve his ball handling because he'll have to be a PG because no NBA team wants a 5'10 SG.
-He needs to improve his defense
-He's a special player
-He needs to return to school 1-2 more years to improve
All these things can be true.
