Biggest Strength: Scoring

Kemba Walker is a well-rounded guard, although his greatest strength is his ability to score. Over his last four seasons in Charlotte, Walker averaged at least 20 points per game, and despite the presence of Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown in Boston, he is still managing 21.8 points on 43.3 percent shooting.

Biggest Weakness: Defense

Considering his size, Walker is a better defender than expected, and the 29-year-old has increased his effort on the defensive end in recent seasons. However, he is still a player that opposing teams can attack, and his game remains focused around his elite offensive skillset.


Trae Young

Biggest Strength: Scoring

After averaging 19.1 points during his rookie season, Trae Young has exploded this year to average just shy of 30 points per contest. Able to shoot off the dribble and from distance, Young has the potential to become one of the best scorers of his generation and will be an annual contender for the scoring title.

Biggest Weakness: Defense

There were concerns over Young's defense before he entered the NBA, and that part of his game has quickly become a huge problem. Statistically, Young is among the worst defenders in the NBA - and with few signs of improvement - it could be a long-term problem for both the point guard and the Hawks.


Bam Adebayo

Biggest Strength: Defense

At 22, Bam Adebayo is already among the NBA's best defenders. Averaging 10.4 rebounds, 1.2 steals, and 1.2 blocks, Adebayo's defensive skillset is incredibly well rounded, and his presence can't be overstated.

Biggest Weakness: Three-point shooting

It is easy to forget that this is just Adebayo's first season playing as a starter, and he will continue to develop. Nevertheless, the one notable absence from his game right now is a lack of a three-point shot, and the Miami star has attempted just one 3-pointer over his past 10 outings.
