Aaron Holiday

Position: PG                       College: UCLA                    Class/YOB: Junior

Height: 6’1                         Weight: 187                        Wingspan: 6’8

 

Strengths:

• Passing upside. Drive-and-kick game is solid. Last year was his first year as the full-time PG. Will only continue to grow as a playmaker in space.
• Dangerous jump-shooter. Will let it fly from way outside. Real threat if defenders go under the screen.
• Downhill penetrator that can finish. Uses his body well to get inside and has quick push shots to score.
• Pesky defender. Was more of a defensive presence as a sophomore but still brought activity last year. Instincts are good on the ball and has length to make up for lack of height.
• Comes from family of NBA players. Brothers Jrue and Justin are rotation players for their respective teams.

Weaknesses:

• Turnover prone. Can take his team out of the game with decision-making at times.
• Height is a problem with his finishing. Athleticism at the rim disrupts his ability to score.
• Has a toughness about him but can try to do too much with the ball.
• Defensively will struggle defending 15-feet and in.
