3. He can (sometimes) set up others
In addition to his ability to handle the ball, push the ball upcourt and create his own shot, Bradley has shown some ability to hit the open man.
No one will ever confuse him with prime Chris Paul, Russell Westbrook or even his new teammate Rajon Rondo, but his passing skills aren’t too shabby.
When playing in Boston, he was always paired in the backcourt with either Rondo or Isaiah Thomas, both of whom put up a good number of assists, relegating Bradley to more of a scoring guard role.
He’s always been more of an undersized 2, but after being moved to Memphis midway through this past season, he seemed to step up the playmaking aspect of his game, averaging 4.0 assists in 14 games for the Grizzlies. In half of those games, he had at least five assists.
That all happened despite playing alongside Mike Conley, who put up 6.4 dimes on the season.
