A pesky, defensive-minded young guard still finding his offensive footing. The 2025-26 line shows the work ahead — 8.9 points on 41% shooting and an ugly 26.3% from three — but the playmaking (67th percentile), rebounding for his size, and competitive perimeter defense give him a path. The jumper has to come around for the rest to matter.

Seasons from Basketball-Reference (2024-25 → 2025-26). Production is box plus-minus, a per-possession measure. Value is VORP-based wins, so it also counts games played.
