Very good skill level. Body is worrying... also... I think I heard something about attitude problems with him from one of the draft podcasts, don't remember which one(or was that about another prospect?)... I'm not sure...take with grain of salt of course.

Yeah, he got sent down to the junior team last year because of his attitude after a game. I believe that's when he was still 16 though, or just turning 17. I've read on realgm though that European fans compare his mental mindset to a Kobe type, really confident player who wants to step up in big situations/games.


And yeah, like I said, if he had a thicker body I think he'd be a certain top 10 pick, but he is a super fluid athlete and for a guy his size he has an excellent handle.

So Giannis has two younger brothers. One of them (Kosta) is 18. Is he draft eligible this year, or is it next year?

He red-shirted last year. Playing for Dayton. He only played 3 minutes in their opening game this year. I don't know what the deal is with him. Should be draft eligible, but probably is not good enough if he cannot find minutes on Dayton.

There aren't many 6'9" guys who can shoot on the move and off the bounce like Musa. I think that's what stands out. He's not just a spot-up guy, and he'll have a lot of gravity. He also has a pretty quick release. If you draft him, I think you're hoping he can play a Kyle Korver role as a shooter and get by on defense.
 
If someone wants to watch Luka, his Euroleague game starts in about 1 hour and 15 minutes...
 
OMG Doncic... ridiculous. Watching him play in Euroleague right now. He's a player! Chasing triple double. WTF? He's doing MJ stuff? Hanging in the air, switching hands in mid-air... he's not an elite athlete but whatever athleticism he has, he uses it all.

He's playing a different game from everyone else.
