Outlook:

Anthony is a talented guard-forward who can play multiple positions on the floor. Offensively, At 6'6", he has the ability to handle the ball, get out in transition, while at the same time free himself for great looks at the basket in half court offensive sets. He had the highest perimeter shooting percentage on our team this season that had seven people averaged double digits and can get his shot off against smaller defenders. He also has a knack for slipping through the lane for buckets in the paint. He will also take smaller defenders in the post and score with his back to the basket. Defensively, he can guard the one through four positions on the floor. He has the quickness to allow him to check opponent’s guards, and can also match up well with any opponent's three man. When asked, he has the strength, length and heart to guard power forwards. He also plays very good transition defense, while having a keen ability to create steals in the passing lanes. Anthony is a very, very hard worker, has a great attitude and always shows a high level of professionalism. He has the mental make-up to play professional basketball away from home, in unfamiliar surroundings.
