Weber retains the ‘havoc’ defensive style VCU imbued him with and piles up the steals, but does not look like an NBA calibre half-court player. Athletic but small, Weber is a sub-par outside shooter still, and still makes irksome, painful turnovers often enough to undermine his desire to be a playmaker. Still, very few apply ball pressure at the lead guard spot like Weber does. As a specialist, he should remain on the fringes for a while.

Played little for multiple NBA teams, yet a typically disruptive spell in the D-League showed that he could be the change-of-pace pest of a third string point guard that should blend in well on a Hornets team looking for perimeter defence. The shot still needs development, yet 35.6% three-point shooting on three attempts per game with the Skyforce suggests progress, especially in terms of volume.

Player Plan: Unguaranteed minimum salary, guaranteeing August 1st, final year. Probably earned the third string spot last year, but summer moves may push him out.
