Guard Jake Lindsey — B

Jake Lindsey is anything but flashy. He’s not going to blow you away with his speed or physical traits, but what he does do is he gives Scott Drew a high IQ guard who can push Manu Lecomte off the ball. He is a solid passer, has good size (6’5″) and is an excellent on-ball defender.

On the season, Lindsey is averaging 4.8 points, 2.4 rebounds and 2.5 assists in 20.3 minutes per game. He is one of the first guys off the bench for Drew and is a typical ‘glue guy.’
