Winslow has all the athleticism you could ask for and he uses every bit of it in transition. He projects as an elite defender at the next level and does a good job slashing into the lane without the ball for easy points on offense. Not the best ball handler, but does well getting to the rim on one or two moves thanks to his speed and quickness.

Is Johnson going to be a role player or an all-star? His athleticism and defensive skills indicate he could be the latter, but his offensive game has to catch up. He doesn’t have the frame of Stanley Johnson, nor the top-tier athleticism, but he could be every bit as success full if he can develop on offense. I see him eventually transitioning to shooting guard in the NBA, but he’s certainly capable of playing both positions effectively in the NBA.
