Plays Like: Dwyane Wade, Steve Francis
Committed To: UCLA

Jrue Holiday is an excellent scorer who makes the game look easy. He plays with great intensity on the defensive end. He has shown an ability to shoot out to three point range as well. Jrue excels in a faster paced up-tempo style, using his court vision to find open teammates. He's an elite scorer at the point guard position, with an extremely quick first step and a knack for getting to the rim. He is a great decision maker for his age and position and should translate well to college and the pro ranks.

He is not a "pass-first" point guard, and prefers to score. Has the ability to be, but prefers to create for himself more than others. He could stand to hit the weights as well, as he occasionally struggles to finish around the rim.
