After all, this is the NBA Draft Forum so I thought I would post a new topic that is actually about a potential draft choice.

Although the Phoenix vs Partizan game was one sided, Partizan had a 19 year old forward named Jan Vesely who had 16 points, 5 rebounds, 2 steals, 2 assists, and 1 blocked shot in only 27 minutes of action.

Has anyone seen him play, and if you did, how would you rate his NBA potential?

.. I’m from Belgrade (hometown of Partizan), so I have seen Vesely playing numerous times..
I think he has good length and basketball IQ for his age, but I doubt that he will go that high on draft (nbadraft has him ranked at 10 in 2011)… I see him as a bubble first rounder like the rest of good euro prospects..

Srkeee, thanks for posting your opinion of Vesely.

Would you be kind enough to explain why you think of him only as a bubble first rounder? In addition, were you factoring in his young age [19] into the equation? Do you think with physical maturation over time [a stronger body] and more professional experience on his part, that would change your opinion? Or do you think his talent level rates only bubble first round choice even after his body matures and he becomes more experienced?
