ESPNs scouting report:

Strengths: A super skilled, young guard, Rathan-Mayes has a great shooting stroke from behind the arc as well as off the dribble and a good understanding of how to create space in the mid-range area. He's still growing into his body, and so isn't yet explosive, but nonetheless is still proficient at creating his own shot.

Weaknesses: He must improve his overall decision making and feel for the game as he has a tendency to monopolize the ball and hunt shots. He doesn't make anyone around him better at the moment and doesn't yet understand how to run a team from the point guard position.

Bottom Line: Improved discipline and consistent effort on both ends of the ball would also help this youngster to maximize his tremendous potential.

Sounds a little like Lacey coming out of HS. Barber and Martin remain my favorite targets, but this kid is really good as well.

I was just about to type that. Looking at his film he is exactly what Lacey is. A guy who just knows how to play the game but doesnt have a lot of athleticism.
