Pros and Cons of Hawkins

We just drafted Malik Beasley at beasely at best at 14. You could trade for someone much better than beasely with 14

Con - Upside is limited. Like this fills a huge need but I'm not sure how good he can ultimately be.

This is how Trey was described a year ago ..

Now he's a shooter, nearly won the dunk contest, doing live commentary on draft night, and cost controlled for years

I'm biased as a UConn alum but he's a perfect fit for this team.

Great work ethic...freshman year I barely noticed him. This year dramatic improvement. Quick release and great footwork. Underrated athlete. Willie needs to make sure he incorporates plays for him bc he's better than just a spot up guy.

Pros- Great jump shooter in every facet. Spot up shooter, off movement, I feel like he does a great job in different scenarios. One of those guys that can get squared when he shouldn’t be able too, does a good job getting his shot off in a variety of situations. Not a guy that is going to create on his own but has shown flashes as a straight line driver off close outs. Really good in transition getting to his spot.

Cons- As good of a spot up guy as he is doesn’t have much of an off the dribble game. Below average finisher at the rim, doesn’t really self create, not a good cutter. Not a passer, really low ast%. Does a good job chasing guys defensively but doesnt really have a defendable position in the league. May struggle to stay in front of smaller guards and gets bullied by bigger wings. Not switchable. Doesn’t really have a projectable frame either. If he struggles to catch on in the league it will be because of the defense. Struggles off ball, from defending to boxing out to rebound.
