A young 3-and-D hopeful whose calling card is the jumper — 40.8% from deep in a bench role, in the 80th percentile as a shooter. He's not yet a creator or much of a finisher, and the overall impact metrics are still negative, but the stroke gives him a real path to a niche. The team holds an option on him.
