He could be described: (by Aran Smith for NBADraft.net in 2010)
An aggressive offensive player capable of scoring off the dribble by blowing by his man or knocking down outside shots Excellent pull up off the dribble as well as a fierce crossover Has a solid in between game Extremely confident, bordering on fearless.
Can be too aggressive at times and force the issue both passing and shooting Also a little too much of a showman who can get caught up in trying to impress instead of making the sound play.
