NBA ROLE: ELITE TWO-WAY WING

A klutch shooting wing, Khris ‘Khash Money’ Middleton has become a household name; (very) smooth scorer w/ a hypersonic shot release – if you blink too fast, Middleton’s already launched an accurate rifle off a curl or turnaround J; plays w/ conviction in the post (plenty of ways to rise into a jumper OTD) – wing shooter & scorer w/ a real turnaround game – Middleton’s swift, high-release is deadly, has a low level of difficulty getting his own shot; emerged as a shot creator & play initiator – Khris possesses the size & IQ to thrive as a secondary playmaker; doesn't waste many possessions, able to carry a large scoring load: Middleton works well as a “second option” but can get his at any time, is always circled on the scouting report as a point of emphasis; normally defends top perimeter scorers…and normally defends them well; 3x All-Star, Middleton stamped himself as a Top DOG & gamer in the clutch – consistent, go-to option en route to MIL’s 1st title since 1971!*; new chapter: veteran leader/scorer in Washington

*banner year in 2021 for Middleton - also won gold w/ Team USA in Tokyo
