Outlook:
Bryan is a very versatile small forward and #2 guard. He is "fluid", smooth, deceptively quick, and exciting to watch. He has exceptional range on his jump shot and is very effective from behind the 3 pt. line. He also leaps, dunks & takes the ball hard to the basket. Bryan has tremendous hands & quick defensive skills, plus he has a great "nose" for the ball & makes things happen on defense. His attitude is as good as you will find any where. Bryan comes from a fantastic family in Chicago. His father is a school teacher & principal; his mother is a successful accountant. He has terrific manners, social skills & habits and is a good Christian family man.
