What's new

Following potential 2015 draftees

Mudiay would have fit the European game way better. Stronger body, really strong slasher. Makes up for a lot of youthful mistakes.
 
But let's face it, he won't get more than 10 min. a game.

Well that totally depends.
There have been impact player at his age in European leagues. But you may be right. If he wanted max money out of that year he'd have warmed a bank for Madrid, Athens or whatever. There's smaller niche clubs who are great at player development where he would have seen 30 min a night at a $300k/year contract

Exactly.


Remember how many minutes Rubio got? Not many, if any.
 
Pretty sure PG_AB has posted this numerous times, but here goes.

Interesting points to note:

- Dirk lite?

- Notice how fast he gets up and down the floor (could probably easily beat some wings, HUGE strides). That'll be a nice fit in Quin's new offensive system where he emphasise getting down the floor and scoring quickly.

- 7 footer that can shoot? How do you guard that? Unstoppable.

- I would swap Kanter for him right now, if not just for the fact that he defends his heart out and has great defensive potential having that GREAT reach and quick feet.

This is not true. He got at age 16 19min/game in Euroleague play. And after finding that statline I'm already too bored to find his ACB stats.

Also note that even top players don't get more than 25/game in the teams. They work around having a deep lineup that's able to sustain injuries and play with high intensity 40min/game.
 
Where would you take him if he had entered the '14 draft?



I would have picked him before Smart & Vonleh, tbh. HUGE potential.
Tbh, I just don't know. I don't follow int'l.
probably around 10. Agree on his upside, but scoring 5.9pts and 2.7rbs in the ACB (in 15min) at 22 years old doesnt scream OMG!!! to me.
