Played against “worse” teams in the Challenger 19-25 Phase but his game and talents can’t be skipped. Will join the NBA Global Academy in Canberra next year. Technically really gifted player with great fluidity with the ball in his hands. So smooth on drives and can get to the rim almost effortlessly. Even more fluid on open court and has high potential as a player on open court. Plays hard and his engine is always running and can make an impact in defense too. Definitely a player to follow his development because he has the tools and skill set that is needed from a swingman in modern basketball.

Athletic two-way guard. Looks like a late bloomer with a thin frame but will probably add some muscle mass in next years. Very good perimeter defender. With his long and quick arms he can make life hard for the ball handler while also not afraid of contact and maneuvers around screens smoothly. He is very good and fluid in transition and likes to get to the rim. He had very good shooting percentages on the tournament but his shooting motion is not the best and raises some questions if this was just a hot streak or can he repeat that on a consistent level. Has a good motor on both sides of the floor.
