Kaunas AdidasNGT: Prospects
ANTON ALAKIN (6’5, 2000, GUARD, KHIMKI MOSCOW) – Another interesting discovery next to Mouaha. Alakin is very exciting player on guard position who has a nose for getting to the basket in open floor and half court. His very good quickness really helps him to utilize slashing ability. He hit some extremely difficult lay ups and in general is really hard to keep in front given his acceleration and interesting, hard to predict moves. Needs to improve his outside shooting ability not to remain one dimensional player. Can possibly become utility bench scorer on good level.

STRENGHTS WEAKNESSESS
  • good height for combo guard standing around 6’5
  • excellent quickness. Very hard to keep in front
  • shows outstanding footwork and excellent creativity. Can really finish difficult drives in crafty was with authority
  • brave. Brings energetic and consistent approach to the floor
  • really excels in fast pace game. Sets defense apart and kicks the ball out to his teammate
  • opportunistic slasher on but also off the ball
  • not overly advanced with his handle
  • does not have a great frame
  • defensive intensity comes and goes
  • how consistently can he finish his drives on good pro level? Shot creation and stroke with his feet set is a must improve. Not very smooth release
  • feeds teammates after beating first line of defense. Vision is not advanced in half court sets
OUTLOOK
Anton Alakin is a player who score high in “Risk-Taking” tend to venture forth in a fearless manner. He has nice size but is somewhat one dimensional slashing oriented player. He has a lot of work to offer more than what his superior speed brings to the table.
