Summary:
Walter Clayton Jr. is an agile, skilled combo guard that can shoot and score the basketball. He had a very good season this year at Florida, and he scored 33 points in his team’s first round loss to Colorado in the 2024 NCAA Tournament. He will need to improve his playmaking skills and show NBA teams that he can reliably run the point at the next level. Currently, he is a second round prospect for the 2024 draft.
