NBA ROLE: TWO-WAY PG

Dennis Schröder has his own rhythm as a a two-way playmaker: seamlessly merges pace + efficiency on a nightly basis; quick, smart and heady – shot creator w/ a knack for getting in the lane and using bursts of speed to cause nightmares for defenders; incredible first step – can get by almost anyone on the perimeter if motivated to do so – usually saves his speed til something opens up; crosses over like a dude from the 70s – no pizzazz, will get to whatever spot he wants before floating it up to the rim – long arms allow for beautiful, unchanged finishes; Schröder’s a small guard but slides his feet & stays active in passing lanes; would benefit from adding strength; jump shot has too low of a release point, sometimes leads to inconsistency from downtown; traded to Nets (2024) – starting PG: veteran shot creator/decision-maker, seems to work best as a primary playmaker
