HoopHall Classic 2014 (Springfield, MA): Aaron is a lanky swingman who can shoot from deep and also slash to the hoop. He has a complete offensive arsenal, but he tends to over-dribble on the perimeter which often freezes out his teammates. If he can tone it down and let the game come to him, he has terrific upside as a prospect. He also needs to gain weight—6-6, 175 pounds won’t suffice in college.
Nike Global Challenge 2013 (Washington D.C.): Aaron is like an unpolished version of Jamal Crawford.
6-6 size with a “saucy” game. Smooth crossover into a pull-up jumpshot, good slasher, and can finish above the rim when necessary. Like Crawford, he has a complete offensive arsenal; that said, he is yet to show consistency in any facet of the game. He can impact a game in many different ways, but he must do it with more assertiveness and consistency.
