Aaron Holiday is an energetic two-guard that stepped his game up as a junior at UCLA. Holiday averaged 20.3 points, 3.7 rebounds, and 5.8 assists per game in 2017-18. He is a career 42% 3-pt. shooter. He shot 82% FT last season. At 6'1", Holiday is going to be asked to play Point Guard in the NBA. Holiday is not quite a Point Guard in our book. We would call him a combo guard. His 1.57-to-1 assist to turnover ratio could use improvement.  …Aaron is the younger brother of Justin and Jrue Holiday. ...We have no questions about Aaron Holiday as an offensive weapon. On D, at 6'1", it is going to be tough for Holiday. UCLA was 3.7 points per 100 possessions better defensively with Holiday OFF the floor. We expect Holiday to be a late first round pick.

Good Advice: In 2002, the 57th pick in the NBA Draft was Tamar Slay. We advised, "Draft Udonis Haslem."
