Two-way profile · how they play
No Synergy two-way data for Pettiford — typically an overseas or G League Elite prospect outside Synergy's college coverage, not a low-efficiency read.
NBA comps · college production
vs guards · 2010–2024Closest NBA comparisons
College production only · Pettiford didn't test at the combine, so these comps are matched on college box-score production (BPM, TS%, usage, assists) vs the position cohort — not measurables.
Matched on college production (BPM, TS%, usage, assists), within position group. Each comp's tag shows which basis drove it; the college production + career outcome shown belongs to the comp, never projected onto Pettiford.
“Top X%” = closer to Pettiford than (100−X)% of all drafted guards on the measurables + production; the bar shows relative closeness among these 5.
