It’s refreshing to see a guard in the modern NBA utilize mid-range jumpers and post-ups. Very rare at this day in age, as the game has mostly been watered down to layups, dunks, and three-pointers. Ant’s got the whole pack offensively, not to mention his elite defense.

[@Daveyjdigital]

[@meg-k-waldren]

I just love Ant Man's game. He's not reckless 3 point happy. He focuses on making the plays necessary to get the W. He doesnt frontrun, flop and bulldoze his way through players. He plays with poise. Very precosious.

[@Phizzo4real]

It took him to develop into the "game manager." Conley has helped a lot with that. Last year, and the year before, Ant was jacking up bad shot after bad shot and turning the ball over.
