He had a drive to the left and hung in the air, shooting against his body off the glass for a bank shot. Then had the ball in the corner, took his time to get position on the defender, drove baseline and finished with the reverse off the glass. It's an old school, effective offensive game. Super impressive.
He really is amazing. He has another 7ish years of learning and growth before hitting that magical season of maturity guys hit around 26. Yet in some ways, he seems like he is already there.

It will be a lot of fun to watch him figure out when he can press for his own shot, and when to defer or create for others.
