NBA ROLE: SCORING POINT GUARD

 

A quick (scoring) point, Shane Larkin adds depth in Boston; sees the floor well but more of a scorer than playmaker - Larkin is effective shooting, post-screens, in the midrange area; solid float game: very quick 1st step, does a nice job creating space for looks; can struggle to finish at the rim; capable longe range shooter, especially if aided by a screener; not a high volume shooter, doesn't force many tough looks (exploits seams to attack); competes defensively but sometimes gets picked on by larger guards in the post; stays ready: needs to master utility role
