Finney-Smith developed into a legitimate starter in Dallas as a 3-and-D role player. After struggling as a shooter early in his career, Finney-Smith became a reliable outside shooter, hitting over 38% from 3 during his last three and a half seasons in Dallas. However, he cooled off a bit in Brooklyn, hitting under 36% of his 3s with the Nets. The sample size wasn't huge, but it's possible that Finney-Smith was benefitting from getting a lot of open looks playing next to Luka Doncic, which may not be repeatable in other situations going forward. He did hit 40% of his 3s playing next to Lebron and Doncic in Los Angeles. The majority of Finney-Smith's shot attempts come from three, and he isn't a shot creator by any means, but he at least has enough off-the-dribble game in that he can attack hard closeouts. He is an underrated passer as he has the skills/vision to make some passes off a live dribble, but certainly isn't someone you want dominating the ball on offense. He's also a good offensive rebounder for his position. On the defensive end, Finney-Smith used to be tasked with guarding the best opposing wing. but is no longer defending at that level. He isn't an elite defender, and he has regressed a bit in the last couple years, but he's still a good defender. He has the size and length to guard multiple positions, and has a decent steal rate. Finney-Smith is best served as your worst starter, or maybe even your 6th-7th man at this point in his career, as he can thrive in the role of just needing to play defense and hit open spot-ups attempts. He will be 32 when he hits free agency in the summer of 2025, so teams may be worried about regression on a long-term contract, especially considering he has already shown some regression in the last couple years.
