Deonte Burton – Nevada, Sr. Point Guard

Ht: 6’1, wt.: 185 lbs.

Strengths: Athletic lead guard with above average wingspan. Improved noticeably over the last four years. Solid rebounder for position. A very capable defender. Can break defenders down off the dribble.

Weaknesses: Not as big of a threat as a spot up shooter, especially beyond the arc. Will take ill-advised shots. Not a true point guard. Only had one winning season in college, went 68-62 and never played in the NCAA Tournament.
