"Darius Carr is an uber-athletic slashing guard that has a lot of high-major interest. The main sell is that athletic ability, as he finishes above the rim extremely well for a 6-foot-3 guard and hangs in the air for layups and passes, too. Honing that athleticism into a final product that benefits winning at the next level is something many top schools are salivating to do.
Carr plays most as on off-guard in his time and that role works for him. He is an excellent cutter, and his athleticism helps him finish those cuts better than most his size. He can attack a tilted floor well, catching and driving with the best of them. The worry with Carr as an off-guard is that he is far from a reliable shooter currently, but his slashing benefits greatly from off-ball play.
The ultimate upside with Carr is that he could be one of the most athletic point guards in a given conference if he develops the skills to truly play the point. His handle is solid, changing direction well and playing with a herky jerky style that is difficult to defend. However, the passing and shooting have a way to go for him to truly fill that role. He is a good defender and that helps give him a floor even if he can never truly play as the point at the next level."
