He got some 6th man votes when he was on Memphis and they finished second in the west, probably his biggest claim to fame.

you know, the year they got bodied by GSW in the first round and GSW went on to expand their dynasty with their 6th finals appearance and 4th win over the span of 7 seasons


He can create his own space with the ball, but he likes to take 10-15 ft shots and less of a 3 and D wing.

He kinda like one of those guys that can be a devastating piece off the bench. Norman Powell type. Melton even has gone off for 30 every once in a while like Powell so I thnk thats a good comparison.



The Problem is I am seeing him as a replacement for Klay and Im sorry but even in Klays dog days he was getting 18ppg and shooting almost .400 from 3 and defensive + every single game. Going to be hard for this journeyman Melton to match that.

He's good. 3&D type of player.

Back injury took him out last season though. He was our starting 2 guard prior to that and was very valuable.
