Patrick McCaw
Measurements
6'7" 185 lbs 20 years old
Pro comparison
Similar to Robert Covington and Trevor Ariza
Strengths
Patrick McCaw has developed in his sophomore season due to increased responsibility. He has become the Rebels leading scorer and has slowly expanded his game. He is versatile and can play either the SG or SF position on offense and is able to guard positions 1-3 on defense. He has quick hands on defense and uses them along with his length to get steals. He moves well laterally and is able to blanket people on defense. Once he gets a steal he is very fast in the open court. He is athletic in the sense that he can run very well, but he lacks some explosiveness and hops. He is a solid shooter from 3pt range and has the potential to be a 3 and D player like Robert Covington or Trevor Ariza. McCaw is still growing into his body and is currently very thin. He will bulk up in the NBA, but how long will it take? He is somewhat raw offensively and lacks good isolation moves to consistently create his own offense. Overall McCaw is a nice player who has some very good tools and instincts to work with. If developed properly he can be a serviceable player in the NBA.
