This is spot on. Hagans is a ball hawk but he doesn’t move his feet that well which means any guard with quickness and a handle takes his lunch (especially since it seems Ashton hasn’t realized he isn’t athletic enough to play up so tight without getting schooled), he hasn’t been able to keep opposing PGs out of the lane at all in SEC play.
His physical profile is pretty meh honestly, he’s nice size and strength for a PG but otherwise doesn’t standout. Offensively there isn’t a single thing he can hang his hat on, on the nba level he ranges from below average to atrocious in every aspect of offensive play.
Oh, and Herro and divincenzo aren’t alike at all. DDV not nearly the shooter Herro is and overall isn’t as skilled, but Donte has elite elite quickness and ability to move his feet. I will say both have a great understanding of the game and how to play though, so they do a lot of little things and both are awesome to watch because of that.
