Neath - is he legit?

Neath has good size, quickness and strength and is more aggressive than just about any guards we have had in the past 10 years (notable exceptions are Childress and CMM). His free throw shooting form also looks much better than his percentage so far. He could pile up a lot of points at the line as he should be able to get there a lot. Reason to be encouraged with him as a player with a new coach.

Neath has big hands, which is important in basketball and an often overlooked trait. He palms the ball with ease. He is also stronger than most PGs, yet he's still athletic. He's got a lot to work with.

I don't think his shot looks very smooth, and you can really see that at the line. Hopefully he improves that. He does finish with the left hand well, which is crucial. He also seems to have pretty good vision.
 
Neath has shown the judgement to keep the ball moving on offense. He will catch then pass without hesitation, initiating the same from his teammates. The ball moves quickly and usually results in clear shot that frequently finds the bottom of the net. He makes the pass that results in a pass that becomes an assist. An important attribute in a PG.
 
Yep. The ball doesn’t stick in his hands unless he is going somewhere with it.

That dribble penetration to set up the alley oop to Sarr was brilliant.
 
Yeah that was a great play that late in the game. Horrible defense on Sarr’s rolll to the hoop but still a great play.
