UNDERDOG
NBA ROLE: DEFENDER/SLASHER
An undrafted, hybrid swingman/forward outta USC Upstate, Torrey Craig dominated in New Zealand & Australia before earning a role in the Association; plug-in role player, switchable defender on the perimeter (can capably check 1-4: strong upper body, disciplined laterally, doesn’t bite on too many fakes), Craig primarily focuses on contributing winning plays; offensive profile: excellent at moving without the ball - Craig times backdoor cuts well & finishes strong on the baseline; not a natural creator, more of a slasher/drive to finish(er) on offense - knows how to get to the rim; ft. a couple of runners & turnarounds but Craig doesn’t look to score “in-between” too often; reliable outside shooter (good arc) - shot a career-best 40% in ‘22-’23; very good athlete - uncanny tip dunker/put back specialist: always active off misses - candidate for blocks & steals, oops & transition points; signed w/ Bulls (2023) - Craig is a reserve forward guy w/ toughness
