    Josh Giddey Highlights

    Josh Giddey Draft Profile

    Strengths

    Despite being just 18 years old, Josh Giddey possesses a trait that takes many players years to develop: fluidity. Giddey is ambidextrous, which makes his pin-point passing and fancy finishes at the rim possible. He is also a great rebounder despite not having the most size or strength when he is on the court.

    Weaknesses

    One of the biggest critiques of Josh Giddey is his lateral movement. Giddey struggles defending players that are faster than him. His lean frame also makes it difficult for him to guard players that are bigger and stronger. At 6’8″, Giddey is a bit of a “tweener” and he will need to commit to being able to guard either smaller faster players, or get in the weight room so he can take the physical punishment of larger players.
