Player Profile

The most correct term to describe Tyler Haws is “scoring-machine”. He is a player who can put the ball in the basket from any kind of range. He is a tremendous shooter either from mid-range or beyond the arc who knows exactly how to move on the court and come off a screen to score. This is actually one of his signature moves! There are games that if he starts scoring he just can’t stop and this is result of his perfect shooting technique combined with his offensive talent. Tyler Haws is also a very good spot-up shooter who can receive the ball and have some made shots in a row.

Always eager to have the ball when it counts, Tyler Haws is an example on and off the court. All his coaches had been choosing him as the captain of the team and this is result of his great determination and his good character. Never caused troubles and always inspired his team as a leader.

Two things that Tyler Haws needs to work on are his explosiveness and his defense! Top players need to be good in both ends and Tyler Haws needs improvement in defense.

Future

It is very possible that Tyler Haws won’t make it to the NBA. His game fits better with the European style of play. If he chooses to continue playing in Europe, he will make the difference in most of the teams!
