SALTY DOG
NBA ROLE: POST-UP PLAYMAKER
Shaun Livingston: a quintessential UnderDOG who overcame a devastating, early knee injury to win multiple world titles w/ GSW; a former prep-to-pros star who entered the league w/ buzz, Livingston has aged gracefully into a post-up guard who uses his size (6’7) to rise up over smaller PGs for turnaround jumpers; almost impossible to stop in the post – small PGs have no chance; cold. moves – breakdown into a post-gather-turnaround is rare; extremely high basketball IQ – it’s not often you see Shaun take a bad shot or commit a silly turnover when it matters most; springy in the open court, finishes strong when given space; versatile defender; completely reinvented himself and never tried to overcompensate for what he struggles w/ – Livingston remains an invaluable member of the Dubs’ second unit despite not being able to knock down threes – says a lot about the rest of his game
