NBA Comparison: N/A

Serafim Karaiskakis – 3/11/2005

Strengths: He is definitely a rare shooter despite his young age. He is not afraid to take shots in crucial moments … A big small forward with good mobility … His height allows him to shoot over opponents … He makes some drives but he mostly prefers to shoot outside. He has a huge wingspan, which helps him grab rebounds.

Weaknesses: He is extremely skinny. Needs to add lot of bulk to his body … He does not play good defense but he gets some steals … His play tends to be very one-dimensional: shooting … Rarely goes inside, and seems to shy away from contact … Lacks great toughness, and a great approach to the game … Seems to think he is better than he is, and can get caught not working hard enough on his body and game if he’s not careful … Doesn’t dribble or pass nearly well enough yet …

Notes: Was born in Belgrade, Serbia. He has potential and probably a good future but he needs to work on his weaknesses. He must be more creative and not depend solely on his outside shot … He would be a late second round draft pick now but look for him to wait some years in Europe and try the NBA immediately after the draft.
