Antonio Barton (Unranked Scout, Rivals, ESPN) is a very talented combo guard, having very good athleticism, good size for a point guard, and a lot of scoring ability, but he doesn't always play the most under control game, and he appears to have quite a few warts at this stage of his development.
Attacking the basket, Barton shows very good ability to adjust and nice creativity around the rim, but he relies way too heavily on an up-and-under finger roll move, going to it on almost every drive to the basket, leading to high difficulty attempts that lead to some bad misses. On the perimeter, he has good range, capable of hitting threes pulling up, spotting up, or coming off screens, including one very impressive buzzer beater in his first game of the weekend.
He doesn't show much point guard prowess at this stage of his development, not looking for teammates much, preferring to create his own shot, and being very turnover prone, though he did have once nice alley-oop assist between the two games.
