QUOTE
I think my game translates greatly to the NBA. Even from the little bit I showed in my first year, just being able to hit threes consistently and make plays defensively. I can space the floor and have the length to get my shot off over any defender. I can guard multiple positions, and that will help me adapt to the NBA that has so many interchangeable positions.”
