At 6'2" and 185 pounds, Terry Rozier will usually be the smallest player on an NBA court. While his excellent wingspan of 6'8" makes him a better defender than players at his height, he's a below-average driver of the ball at this point of his career.

Physically speaking, there's not much Rozier can do now that he's already 23 years old. 10-20 pounds of muscle gain in his upper body can somewhat ease his way, but more often than not its Rozier whose decision-making is by and large at fault.

Rozier should try more emphatic drives given his explosiveness and speed. Averages of 50.3% from 0-3 feet and 30.9% from 3-10 feet are by no means ideal for a point guard who might wish to be a starter on his own team next season.
