Jeremy Fears

Fears is a true point guard who has natural charisma and leadership skills. He knows how to run a team, has good floor vision and playmaking instincts, particularly in the open court and when playing pick-and-roll. He’s very smart with a lot of tricks up his sleeve, although there are times when he doesn’t always value the ball as much as he showed with USA Basketball. His size and measurables aren’t overwhelming, but he’s starting to build up his body, show more vertical leaping ability when he can elevate off of two feet, and play with more pace in the open floor. He has a playmaking instinct defensively, but again, has times where he can be too risky gambling for steals, rather than sitting down and getting stops. His biggest swing skill is his shooting. He’s a consistent threat with his pull-up, but can jerk his release from behind the three-point line. Overall, Fears was at his best, and most efficient version of himself, with USA Basketball, which should be a good indication of what we’ll likely see at Michigan State.
