COBY WHITE (CHI)
TOP DOG
NBA ROLE: CREATIVE, SCORING POINT
Chicago’s Coby White: a 6’5 guard who can get buckets in bunches; rich tools on the perimeter - Coby can score from midrange & deep after a few set-up dribbles (loves combo step backs & deep pull-ups), has a wide set of tools to get his own looks; big guard, utilizes frame + quickness to dart by opponents - stars in the open court, can consistently take it coast to coast; improved defender, effort & focus evolved in 4th season; fully detonates from downtown on certain nights - great arc, sets up well, tough to deal with after a few drop in (high volume shooter); very patient PnR decision-maker these days, though Coby now has to make an extra adjustment as a lead guy; must focus on efficiency and managing game flow as CHI’s #1 PG; game significantly improved in Yr. 5 (runner-up for Most Improved): admirably handled a star-like workload in 2024 - Coby’s a Top DOG in Chicago
