2001 Scouting Report:
Strengths: Quick first step can get in the lane and finish with a variety of lay-ups it's nothing for Solomon to switch hands when he penetrates ... Athletic combo guard who has great hops and a pro body that enables him to finish in traffic or in the open court ... Has great confidence in his game feels that he is one of the best in the country and is one heck of a trash talker ... Really improved on his free throw shooting this year allowing him to gain easier points ... Scores the majority of his points with perimeter shooting and driving to the basket where he is absolutely fearless ... Although short for a shooting guard his long arms give him the advantage he needs to get a shot off ... Has shown the ability to hit the spot up 3-point shot ... Relentless although double teamed for the majority of the season Solomon never gave up and continued to play ...
Weakness: The biggest problem Solomon will face is that he is a shooting guard trapped in a point guard's body ... Really hasn't shown the ability to get other evolved in the offense although one could argue that his teammates weren't the most talented ... Stats are a tad bit inflated as he got a lot of his points after games were decided ... Possesses a streaky jumper and really hasn't shown to have the best shot selection ... Has really struggled scoring against big defenders something that he will face in the NBA at the shooting guard position every night ... Has a tendency to take too many jumpers from the outside when his shot isn't falling ... Must continue on improving his defense such as anticipation and playing focusing better on playing the passing lanes ...
