NBA Comparisons:
|
Optimistic Outlook: Tim Thomas |
Pessimistic Outlook: Chuck Person (right now) |
Positives: Great size and ability
for a small forward. Exceptional shooter and scorer.
Loves to shoot the three pointer and is unstoppable
when he gets in the zone. A good athlete for his size.
Excellent at moving off the ball.
Negatives: Very inconsistent and has
terrible off nights. While he is a good shooter he struggles
to score any way else. Not good at creating his own
shot or taking his defender off the dribble. Horrible
ball handling and passing skills. He has yet to develop
a low post game. A mediocre rebounder despite his 6-10
height. Very skinny and underdeveloped physically. Defensive
skills are mediocre at best.
Bottom Line: Despite his physical
gifts and above average athleticism, Darius Rice is
very one-dimensional. All he can really do is catch
and shoot. While he is a good shooter he lacks any consistency.
He can shoot 10-17 one game then shoot 4-19 the next.
