* Versatile combo guard with legit size at 6’6″, capable of playing both point guard and shooting guard.

* Excellent touch and control on drives—very good in pick-and-roll (0.950 PPP, 65th percentile) and isolation (0.893 PPP, 55th percentile).

* High-level feel for the game and smart decision-making in two-man actions.

* Natural playmaker with elite court vision and passing instincts (1.45 A:TO ratio on 850 possessions; 69th percentile in overall offense).

* Dangerous in mid-range and floater zones—shot 59.5% at the rim as a guard.

* Comfortable operating as a primary or secondary ball handler; thrives in structured offenses and late-clock scenarios.

* Great recovery speed and disruptive off-ball instincts on defense—allows just 0.720 PPP overall (88th percentile).

* Strong pick-and-roll defender (0.608 PPP allowed, 75th percentile).

* Effective in isolation defense (0.615 PPP allowed, 85th percentile).

* Limits spot-up opportunities with positioning and length (0.813 PPP allowed).

* Excels in catch-and-shoot situations (1.19 PPP).

* Left-handed drives are more efficient (1.014 PPP going left vs. 0.879 PPP going right).

* Three-point shooting remains inconsistent—28.7% on the season, particularly streaky off the dribble.

* Can become too left-hand dominant and predictable in his attacks.

* Sagging and over-helping defensively lead to open perimeter shots; awareness lapses off-ball.

* Tends to over-dribble and stall offensive flow—plays like a one-man offense at times.

* Overcommits on closeouts and gambles too much in passing lanes.

* Needs to improve physicality and rebounding; often out of position on box-outs.

* Struggles finishing through length—gets blocked when forcing tough drives inside.

An international scout  on Saraf: “Israeli guard with that classic Euro feel – plays with his head up, changes speeds beautifully. Not the quickest but knows how to create separation with footwork. Shot needs to be more consistent, but the mechanics are okay. Could be a nice second-unit creator in the mold.”

(Earlier in the season) Another international scout on Ben Saraf: “He has intriguing size and skills, but there’s concern he’s more “jack-of-all-trades” than truly versatile. His off-the-dribble jumper is key, but he lacks go-to spots and hits just 15.8 percent of his threes in these situations. He’s also struggling in transition and pick-and-roll play. While he’s a solid finisher, his lack of standout athleticism limits his offensive upside. Saraf can initiate and create, but he doesn’t draw much defensive attention, capping his impact as a lead guard. Defensively, guarding bigger wings and forwards will be tough given his physical limitations and instincts.”
