Summary:
Dyson Daniels is a tall, agile ball handling guard that can do a little bit of everything when he is on the court. He can score the basketball in a variety of ways, and he is also a solid playmaker. He had a very good season in the G-League, but he will need to improve his outside shot in the meantime. Currently, he projects to go in the lottery in the 2022 draft.
