Combining duties at the point and from the two position, the combo guard is a strange position. Much freedom for those players. To shoot from beyond the arc. But also from closer to the basket.
Several prolific scorers fit the description, as confirmed by the selections of Eurohoops on the Top 3 combo guards at the end of the first half of the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Regular Season.
The leading scorer is on this list and one more player managing to propel his team with solid showings.
Carlik Jones misses out
Outside the Top 3, Carlik Jones deserves an honorable mention. In his good games, Partizan Mozzart Bet shifts gears. Besides being effective in moving the ball to set up the best possible option, he really loves to share on the court.
He averaged 13.6 points, 3.4 rebounds, 4.9 assists, and 0.9 steals per game. He made 48.9% of his two-pointers, 68/139, 31.1% of his three-pointers, 14/45, and 93% of his free throws, 53/57.
