Wizards' Kyshawn George Must Fix Two Things

Despite emerging as one of the better young stars in the NBA, guard Kyshawn George still has a few things that he has to fix. George has of course found ways to be wildly successful thus far, so it won't be the end of the world if he doesn't immediately fix all of his flaws. However, if he wishes to elevate his game to the next level, fixing these two things would do wonders for his development. 

Maintain Consistent Aggression 

Despite George’s raw offensive production being impressive, his scoring aggression has wavered over the course of games. Instead of commanding the ball, hunting for his looks, George will settle with playing off the ball, letting others do the work. Although George’s shooting prowess allows him to be effective in an off ball role, it's very clearly less valuable to the team when he chooses to do so.

One of the more prevalent problems in Washington right now is the lack of point guard play. Although Bub Carrington and CJ McCollum are capable of running offense in pinches, their approach to the position leads to sub-par play. George, on the other hand, has the ability to create for himself and others in a variety of ways, making his minutes as the lead ball handler immensely valuable. Because the Wizards are in the midst of a rebuild, they want to see how other young guards can develop in different scenarios. However, it is both beneficial for the Wizards and George is he remains consistently aggressive game to game.
