An extremely smooth and talented guard, Tyreke has proven that he is able to play as a lead guard, but his natural position seems to be as an SG (where he can still be a facilitator, but can look to score more often). Loves playing at a fast pace, where he doesn’t have to worry about play calls but can rather create on the fly. Playing in a spread offense that is predicated on ISO plays, he has proven that he can break down people off the dribble and get into the lane. He’s shown that he can be a reliable distributor, but is too predictable with his passes to be more than a secondary creator for most offenses. Even though he rarely finishes above the rim, he uses his body and finesse to convert on a good percentage. His jumpshot has shown very little progress and he continues to struggle with inconsistent shooting. Most of his shooting woes can be directly pointed at his unorthodox release. He slings the ball from behind his head, losing sight of it completely at the point of release. Must improve his midrange game, his pull-up lacks rhythm, often leaving him off balance with varying results. Defensively, he is a bit lackadaisical, and while he does have long arms, because of questionable lateral quickness he will have to work extremely hard to contain the ball on the perimeter. Hasn't shown a lot of want-to yet, but now that he's leaving Memphis and will start getting a paycheck to play basketball (WINK) that may change.
