J.D. Davison

Draft Notes

A bouncy, strong and really fun to watch guard who puts on a show with his leaping and dunking ability. Has broad shoulders, natural strength and tremendous vertical explosion.

Has elite physical traits, along the lines of a Steve Francis, DSJ or Westbrook but plays more like a shooting guard/wing and so is a bit undersized for that position.

Can shoot the pull up jumper and hit shots from outside but is far from a finished product when it comes to his perimeter skills. He’s got great tools to work with and a chance to develop into a very high level NBA prospect.
