A fearless microwave scorer who's become one of the best bench guards in the NBA — 17 a night with deep range (37.7% from three, 89% from the line) and elite shot creation off movement. He doubles as a sharp playmaker (90th-percentile, 5.2 assists) who barely turns it over. The catch is size and defense: at 6'1" he's a target on that end and offers nothing as a rim deterrent, but the offensive package is real.
