Charlie

NBA Comparison: OJ Mayo

Bio: If I were Charlie I would go play the lottery right now because he is definitely the luckiest of all the Albermarle All Stars. Every time he loses the ball or gets caught in an awkward position, he has the good fortune of being bailed out by a foul. I don’t know how he draws attention to himself so well. I really don’t. Just sticks out like an ugly person at a Quinn family reunion.

Strengths: Instant offense. His biggest strength is creating his own shot, especially when the offense is stagnant. Prefers to go to work a step inside the 3-point line, and defenders must be ready for the pull-up jumper or the drive to the basket. He really has worked on his mid-range game, and it has become one of the more reliable shots of all the All-Stars. Also, has the ability to make circus shots in the paint, too, which is always exciting to watch.

Must improve: As someone who matches up with Charlie quite frequently, I have to stand up for him here. His defense is actually fine, it’s really just a matter of him trying only half of the time. Giving up completely on plays and stuff. But I’m basically the same way and nobody ever says shit to me.
