Solo a little slow to drive to the basket after receiving pass. He is a 3 point shot first guy, rather than a drive and see what comes up guy. He could take a quick 2 dribble drive to the hoop and backpedal for a 3, but right now I'd say he catches and looks to shoot, not drive. By the time he realizes he's not clean for the 3, the opportunity to probe with a drive all the way or dish is probably gone. Could change, as he is morphing rapidly in a positive way.

I think you'll see him make more defensive plays soon. Same as indecision about driving, he is still a little slow to anticipate and stay ahead of the play right now. One poster mentioned ball watching. Yes, agreed, especially when he is on opposite side from the ball. He is vulnerable to back doors and skip passes over the top to the man who he is loosely guarding.

Watched the move by Brickus when he made Solo look sick on a drive.  I can see Solo defending that effectively real soon.  Quicker brain, quicker feet and great length and athleticism and that's a stop,
