Cason Wallace

CASON WALLACE (OKC)

UNDERDOG

NBA ROLE: HYBRID GUARD/WING

 

OKC’s Cason Wallace: no-nonsense hybrid guard outta Kentucky; pure basketball player - Cason played off the ball (on the wing), as a rookie, despite his rep as a speedy lead guard; very prepared shooter w/ a consistent release (Wallace has a ‘corner badge’) - can’t leave him unattended at any time - sniper tag as a 1st year; lives in the weight room: Wallace’s strength aids his physicality as a perimeter defender (puts the pressure on), and as a finisher (absorbs contact); maximizes PT, never complains about his minutes; borderline Future Top DOG, unheralded overall: Cason’s toughness & ability to alternate between floor generalship and spot up/spot scoring is too much to deny; Coach Daigneault’s Undisputed X-Factor in 2025?
