Jarin Stevenson

Jarin Stevenson comes from a basketball family. His mother played at North Carolina, and his father was a 1,400-point scorer at Richmond before playing professionally overseas for ten-plus years. Stevenson is skilled on the offensive end; with solid size, he can push the break or shoot the three. He can fall in love with the three-point shot. He has a quick release and consistently has good balance, and is shot-ready off the catch. While he is still growing into his frame and athleticism, he has solid wiggle and excellent hand-eye coordination. He is a good athlete, better vertically than he is laterally, which will lead to questions about where he defends. There is good floor vision, and he is able to push the break off the rebound. Can be a good area rebounder when he locks in. Stevenson is a matchup problem, with his skill away from the basket. Prefers facing up. Would like to see him develop a little more alpha, and be ok taking over a game. His efficiency numbers have been high, consistently at the highest levels.
