Dinwiddie is an accomplished guard who can do a little bit of everything. He can be a team’s primary scorer as the two guard, or he can selflessly set up teammates in a way that not many 6’6″ guys can.

Dinwiddie can spot up on the perimeter and shoot the 3-pointer, averaging 41.3 percent from deep in his final year in Colorado. Although he’s not extremely athletic, the 22-year-old knows how to get to the rim and is a varied finisher at the basket.

In spite of his own scoring capabilities, Dinwiddie is an incredibly willing passer, unlike many shooting guards. Dinwiddie has great vision, and understands how to get other guys open. Last yea,r he averaged 3.8 assists per game, a solid return for a wing.
