f I considered Joey Graham a really intriguing guy to watch in a private setting after seeing the way he was played in college, then his twin brother Stevie was downright fascinating because of the fact that he just wasn't played at all in college, averaging just under 18 minutes per game at Oklahoma State, partially due to injuries.
After watching him work out, it's hard not to come to the conclusion that that was a huge mistake on OSU's part, despite their depth. Like his brother Joey, he is a phenomenal athlete and built like a tank, but beyond that he is a pretty different player in terms of his skill set and where he is at as a player.
His ball-handling didn't look as good as his brother's did in the drills, but once he got out on the court in the two on two games and had the ball in his hands you could see that he handles it just fine. Combine that with an extremely strong 1st, 2nd and 3rd step and terrific leaping skills (he is very quick off his feet) and you have a guy who is already a very intriguing slashing threat. He was making crisp passes and seeing the floor very well, not disappointing at all in terms of his advance billing as a player who played the point for his entire career until he transferred to Oklahoma State. This guy is strong as an ox, physical and he absolutely loves contact.
The biggest revelation from this workout was the fact that he can actually shoot the ball pretty well. In the 90 second drill described above he hit 28 threes in that span, 3 more than his brother and 11 more than he hit in his entire career at Oklahoma State

If you're a rockets fan, i'd be excited since he's probably going to be a great player in a few years, just not right now.
