Scouting report

Backcourt analysis

Craig Porter Jr. is a 67-rated point guard at the edge of a rotation, ranked #43 of 81 point guards in Backcourt.

His best fit is the Floor general role, which runs the offense and sets up everyone else, with low usage of his own. His passing (78), basketball IQ (75) and speed (73) are exactly what that role asks for, and the game rates the match as “Made for it”.

For a point guard, his standout attributes are basketball IQ (75) and passing (78), in the top 46% and 48% of point guards respectively.

The trade-off is three-point (54), in the bottom 13% of point guards — surround him with floor spacing so defenses cannot sag into the paint.

Plan his minutes around matchups and blowouts rather than a fixed nightly share. His stamina of 60 means his energy drains quickly, so watch the ENR column.

At 25 he still has room to grow toward a potential of 70.

He earns $2.3M a season with a transfer value of $5.7M — a bargain for his rating.
