I think that's the type of player Baldwin could become. I wouldn't call it a floor. A lot depends on who he's playing next too.

Not right. It sucks to hear every week something new but his original quote after the workout was (translated to english):
"After the draft i want to join immediately to the nba because i think its easier to develop here (america) than in europe"

16-5-4 in his best season. Baldiwn not going to do that.
In addition to doing a workout in New York, Korkmaz will have worked out for Chicago, Denver and Boston, teams picking 14 - 16. I still like him for the Jazz and think he'll be a legit shooting wing with decent IQ and offensive versatility. Physically, he may stay fairly skinny (think slightly taller Ricky Rubio), but he's a good enough athlete to play at NBA speed.
Agree. Good chance he will probably see some time in D-League to develop. Also if are the NBA team do you really want to risk the Euro player getting a big contract and then having to wait at least 3 years before he comes over? Then you will have to give him a nice contract in order to get the player over. I know this year Sixers and Suns trying hard to get Saric and Bogdanovic over before they are eligible for the big bucks.
He is 6'7 maybe even 6'8.
Looked at least a couple of inches taller than Bogdanovic who is supposed to be 6'6",
Here's scouting report on Georgios Papagiannis. If he falls to 42, he might be a good stash player.

Baldwin, D. Murray and Valentine all worked out against each other in Milwaukee Friday. Baldwin is a possibility at 10 for the Bucks who would have him play off the ball next to Giannis and guard PGs defensively. The Bucks also worked out Thon Maker Friday along with other high-energy bigs like Diallo and Onuaku. Media chatter in Milwaukee is that Skal isn't really being looked at for #10. The Bucks didn't interview him or work him out. The Bucks have interviewed Deyonta Davis, but haven't worked him out. Expect the Bucks to take Poeltl, Davis or Baldwin, with Ellenson as a darkhorse.

Murray, Korkmaz and Richardson all have upside in the backcourt for different reasons. Murray is probably the riskiest of the three. The Jazz should have their pick of those three if they stay at 12. Some scouts are comparing Thon Maker to Tyson Chandler, seeing his position as ultimately at the 5 with his defensive potential translating over to the pros.

I can't see Toronto, Milwaukee, and Orlando all passing on him.
