Scouting Report

AssetsThe whole package: 'The Truth' is a gifted scorer from all over the court, a team-first passer, and an above-average rebounder and defender. Also one of the NBA's most clutch performers.
FlawsCan be streaky, and with age has become much more a perimeter shooter. Turnovers have always been an issue. Not the defender he once was.
Career potentialSlightly-declining clutch All-Star.
