He makes some nice cuts in here. Also works nicely withKornet a couple times.
Kind of similar to Pritchard, in that they are both really good shooters. High basketball IQ guys. High character guys who are good to have around. But with both of them there's the same drawbacks:
a) came into the league at an old age, which means less of a window for development, lower upside
b) Not really an NBA level athlete, has physical limitations in terms of speed, agility, explosiveness, leaping, not super strong, etc.
c) below average defender, mostly because of those physical limitations
That being said, we've seen undersized combo guards who can mainly just shoot it work out (Seth Curry, Patty Mills)
And we've seen not so good athletes but really good shooters out on the wing work out too (Joe Harris, Strus, Duncan robinson, Davis Bertans..)
So there is a chance. Hauser just has to really work on his strength, quickness/agility/athleticism and defense. If he can improve in at least 1 of those areas, he's got a shot.
