Scouting Report
A very solid playmaker who executed efficient passes and could score enough to keep a defense honest. Didn't give the ball away much. A decent outside shooter and an energetic leader. Defensively he was neither big nor much of a ball-thief. Took a lot of three-pointer attempts for a player who didn't hit for an above-average percentage from the arc. Injuries increasingly became an issue as his career progressed.
Long Range Potential: Solid backup / spot-starting point guard.
