Summary:
Nolan Hickman is an agile, skilled combo guard that can shoot and score the basketball. He is a gifted ball handler that can get to anywhere he wants on the court, and he has a wealth of ball-handling moves that he can use to score off the dribble. He also can ably run the point, but he will need to improve his defensive skills.
