NBA Draft Prospect Semaj Christon
6-3 – Point Guard – Xavier
A true point guard with ideal size, speed and court vision.
Pros
Sees the floor well and is a pass first point guard. Has a quick first step and can get into the lane almost at will. Finds teammates very well and dribbles with his head up, looking to pass.
Very good at getting to the rim and scoring in the lane. Is very difficult to stay in front of and can beat the defender with the crossover, spin move, hesitation dribble etc.
Quick defender who gets a lot of steals and can really guard on the perimeter.
Cons
Not a great free throw shooter or three point shooter. Has decent form but a lot of work to do to become consistent from outside.
Needs to cut down on turnovers and play within himself. Must add strength to defend the post up.
Projection: Late first to mid second round pick in the 2014 NBA Draft
