Hands is one of those point guards that never seems to be sped up too quickly. He has a calming influence about him when he has the ball in hands. He is a very good athlete, even though that quality never seems to slap you in the face. He has a silky smooth pull-up jumper that he hit multiple times in this camp setting.
