Backcourt analysis

Mikal Bridges is a 72-rated small forward who fits best as bench depth, ranked #24 of 77 small forwards in Backcourt.

His best fit is the Sharpshooter role, which spaces the floor and punishes every defender who helps off him. His three-point (73) and basketball IQ (78) are exactly what that role asks for, and the game rates the match as “Suits him”.

For a small forward, his standout attributes are basketball IQ (78) and passing (75), in the top 13% and 22% of small forwards respectively.

The trade-off is rebounding (57), in the bottom 17% of small forwards — pair him with a big who controls the glass.
