Comparing my stats from the Western Australia Basketball League from when I was a top ager and a bottom ager, I feel like I have become more unselfish and assist my teammates a lot better and flow a lot better. 

In my team, I have become the primary point guard. I can run plays with ease, get to where I want to and find teammates for better looks all the time. I can still get a bucket when you need to and in late-game situations, I was always the go-to guy.

I have had many coaches call me a very talented offensive threat that’s decision-making and playmaking has skyrocketed over the winter and has taken my game to the next level. I am a very unselfish player too and memories offences easily.
