Good size to play the point guard position

Summary:
Kenan Sipahi is a solid playmaker that can run the team effectively. He can set the table, and he will help the team run the offense. He also is a good position defender, and he can also find ways to score.
But he doesn’t look for his shot enough, and he needs to improve his jump shot. He also only possesses average physical tools, as he does not possess elite athleticism for the point guard position. Currently, Sipahi may rate as a borderline second round candidate for the upcoming draft.
