Scouting report on Will Barton

Jake Rauchbach coached at the collegiate level, founded The MindRight Pro Program and trained numerous professional and Olympic athletes. Now, Rauchbach provides high performance analysis on the NBA and college basketball and serves as the Player Performance Specialist for Temple University's men's basketball team.

In the 2015-2016 season, Will Barton took impressive steps forward in his progression as a player. After coming over from the Portland Trailblazers mid-season, Barton’s minutes, points, steals, rebounds, assists, and three-point percentage all increased. Now, in his second full season in Denver, Barton appears to be improving incrementally with parts of his game but also lagging behind with others, namely on the defensive end.
