Scouting Report
Tahaad Pettiford is a quick-on-quick point guard. He has a crafty, but explosive handle that gets him to his spots on the floor. He does not dance with the ball, it is one or two dribbles and go. The 6-foot-0 guard has a quick-twitch burst that gets him above the rim. His team will run back-door lobs for him in the half-court. He has a tendency, at times, to get one-dimensional, looking to score or attacking with his head down, but he has some electricity in his play-making. Pettiford is a lefty. He plays with the utmost confidence. The shot is more of a set shot, and while he could shoot better off the bounce, it has to be respected. His quick athleticism and burst give him upside to defend the point of attack. There is an aggressive edge to his game.

Personal Life
Tahaad Pettiford was invited to participate in USA Basketball’s Junior National Team Minicamp in October 2022. He also averaged 13.3 points with the New Heights Lightning organization on Nike’s EYBL 17U Circuit in the summer of 2022. “I’m a short guard who can get to the rim and finish above the rim,” Pettiford told On3’s Jamie Shaw. “I like to get up the floor and go. I can get a stop when my team needs one, and I like to get my teammates involved. I’ve recently started watching a lot of De’Aaron Fox. I just love the way he knows how to create space and use his body. It creates space for an open shot, and also, you know if they overplay him, he knows how to just one move get by them.”
