Looks like he signed a 1 year deal overseas a couple months ago. Will be nice that there's no restrictions in getting him over here (if he wants to) for next season.

Poor man's Kevin Love?

if referencing to defense than yes. He's incredibly non-athletic and slow-footed, get blown by easily if not in the lowpost. he will foul on those occasions though. pretty fundamental offensively as stats may indicate.

poor nba-fit imo.

I already said Cavs had a steal on this draft choosing him...

I dont know how his game can translate into NBA but I think he is a worker and a warrior so he will be just fine. He is unathletic for his size, but he has much of other great skills ....

I dont know how he fits into long term plans but I would like to see what he can do in NBA.

I know Macvan, he truly is a great player. Catch is, he stays in Europe at least for a while. The guy can end up being next Luis Scola.
