Nixon seems to have decent IQ, good touch, some good instincts on offense. Nothing spectacular. I mean, for the most part, he hangs out on the 3 point line and does nothing.
But on defense he is just horrific. Because there is no position he can guard at this level. His foot speed is atrocious, even at the 4. Not to mention lack of strength and explosion.
BYU is not going anywhere with players like Nixon, who don't have the tools to be a good defender.
