    Been doing some research as the draft approaches, especially on international guys, and this kid’s athleticism blew me away. Hadn’t heard of him at all talked about on here (probably just missed a EuroBaller thread) but I think he will for sure get drafted in the 2nd. His upside is very intriguing, has a very quick first step and is a strong finisher. From what I’ve seen, his defensive effort is badly lacking, though he has the physical tools to be good on that end. He’s 6’4″ and is most likely better in a combo guard role more so than a pure point. With a good coach/organization (would love him on the Spurs), I could see him as a Reggie Jackson/Jerryd Bayless type impact off the bench. Thoughts?

    yup he’s going to be good. I wrote a little about him yesterday on one of the threads. like I said he’s one of the best European athletes. he’s got an elite first step with a 41′ vertical. if he can improve his ballhandling even more(he’s not good dealing with pressure) and his passing I think he might make a great scoring pg in the nba.to be honest he reminds me a little of Monte Ellis

    He’s not your typical European guard prospect that’s for sure. Nice looking shot with great elevation. Shot 39% from int’l 3 this season. Physically strong and his athleticism has already been detailed. Needs to work on his point skills though, namely his handle and playmaking. He doesn’t have much wiggle in his game. Looks like he’s very reliant on speed and strength in straight lines.
    Reminds me a bit of Goran Dragic.

    He seems to be a great athlete with a fantastic first step and the guy who made the video wanted to make clear that he can dunk. He can also shoot off the dribble. He’ll get some assists, but not really a PG. I can see the Monta Ellis comparison.
