Dressick is a dynamic young player who is the ultimate energy blue-collar guy. Nick is a lethal shooter from downtown with a blistering 62 percent clip. Explosive off the bounce when he chooses to attack the lane. With an array of crafty moves, he can free himself up for a nice mid-air pull-up or a strong finish at the rim. Not a volume shooter but a smart efficient shooter. Nick is also a jaw-dropping passer. This stud can really thread a needle. Nicks’s court vision is incredible. Not only that, Nick gobbles up boards like candy. Seems to always be a magnet to the ball. And most importantly an outstanding defender.
At the most recent event we viewed him at, he averaged a sweet double-double and 6asts per game; one of the biggest standouts there with 13pts and 12reb per game with those assists are pretty good. His dazzling display of talent was electrifying at this event. Nick was shifty and creative finding shots for himself and his teammates. His AAU stats were 12.4pts, 6.8asts, and 3.8rebs. Evidence this young star is getting better. Nicks’s biggest improvement is elevating his all-around skills because he already is the total package. I encouraged him to shoot more but his brain processes team-first IQ. Nicks’s goal is to keep elevating those skills and be more of a scorer than just a facilitator. But without losing the passion to fuel his team. Coaches should know he is a great leader and no one you put in front of him will have more heart or work harder on either end of the floor. Nick is a coach’s dream. Dependable and fierce.
