A highly-regarded freshman guard who is expected to contribute immediately... possesses outstanding speed and quickness... should fit well into Wake Forest's up-tempo style of offense... well-schooled in the fundamentals... a versatile and athletic player who can play either guard position... will team with sophomore Ishmael Smith to give Wake Forest one of the top point guard duos in college basketball.
