STRENGHTS WEAKNESSESS
  • thickly built. Recovers a bit lack of size with 6-1 wingspan
  • plays with as much heart as anyone
  • shows fantastic mentality and level of competetiveness also on defensive end
  • does a great job creating for the teammates in drive and kick situations
  • really speedy and shifty on the court. Makes eurosteps with authority
  • has a tight handles that are kept extremely low to the ground
  • improved pull up game. Jumps and releases high 
 

  • you can’t measure his heart but still he is the shortest guy on the court in almost every game. Terribly limited as a finisher
  • may have hard times dealing with double teams
  • lives but can also die from uptempo style. Will take questionable attempts or passes at times on the beginning of shot clock 
OUTLOOK
Welsch is a really creative PG who plays with a swagger. He comes from basketball family. Uncle Jiri played many years for Celtics and his father was also member of senior Czechoslovakian national team. He is fearless and plays with poise but that is the only way for him to survive on the solid level of competition regarding his lack of height. Marek may decide to attend prep school in USA to prepare better for his collegiate career.
