Motta is a versatile offensive prospect who can play all three attack spots as well as midfield. Additionally, Motta is effective as an initiator or off-ball operator. Motta’s filthy stick skills, speed and quick cut abilities are three major reasons he excels in numerous roles. When Motta has the ball, his stutter step moves, and split dodges combined with his explosive first step push him past the initial defender into open space for snipes on the run. Motta is a patient dodger who will weave his way through traffic or even re-dodge until a high percentage shot opportunity presents itself. He is especially dangerous when he initiates from behind the net. Off-ball, Motta’s cuts, sweeps, and slips produce easy chances in close. His ability to sit down in open space, then execute a quick catch and shoots is impressive. Motta can finish around the cage with either hand. Additionally, in-close Motta is a master at slipping low shots past opposing goalies. Motta’s ability to rip from GLE must be respected, too.
