Ja’Shon Garrison
SG
6’5
205
20 years old
College: South Florida
Potential Ratings:
B C+ B C+ C- B
Garrison is an interesting character. After playing one season in South Florida, Garrison transferred out of the USF program and registered at a community college. Following some run-ins with the law, Garrison emerged in recent pick-up games in Florida. Last year, Garrison went head-to-head against the likes of Kenny Boynton and Michael Gilchrist and was often the star of the game. Time will tell if Garrison can keep up his act or if his game will sour.
Strengths: An amazing slasher. Gets to the rim whenever he wants to. Very good ball handler. Minimizes turnovers and makes good decisions with the ball usually. Can handle the rock with either hand. Active in the passing lanes. Very quick off the dribble.
Weaknesses: Bad attitude. Poor rebounder for a SG. Must have a more consistent jumper. Must get stronger to defender bigger, more talented shooting guards. Work ethic is questionable. Could be a hit or miss type guy in this draft.
Best Case Scenario: The second coming of Dwayne Wade
Worst Case Scenario: A Marquis Daniels type
Summary: Late lotto pick/Mid 1st Round. May be better off as a taller PG in the long run.
