A quick look at him and he looks pretty good. Hopefully he develops well over there.

From Wikipedia:

For the 2018–19 season, Bolmaro moved to Spanish club FC Barcelona. He averaged 10.4 points, 3.1 rebounds, 2.7 assists, and 1.2 steals per game for club's the reserve team, while playing in the LEB Oro, Spain's second-tier level league. With the reserve team, he played in a total of 33 games, and averaged 24.1 minutes per game of playing time. He shot 39.6% overall from the field, 45.5% on 2-point field goals, 30.8% on 3-point field goals, and 65.2% on free throws.[8]

In Barcelona's 2019–20 season, he split playing time between Barcelona's reserve team and senior team, which competed in the Liga ACB, the highest level Spanish league, and the EuroLeague.[9] During the 2019–20 Spanish 3rd Division season, while playing with Barcelona's reserve B team, he averaged 14.9 points, 2.7 rebounds, 3.6 assists, and 1.8 steals, in 26.3 minutes per game, in 9 games played in the Spanish 3rd Division. On 13 August 2020, Bolmaro signed a contract extension with Barcelona through 2023.[10]

Sounds like he was drafted more for playmaking than shooting.

We not picking 3 guards with our 3 picks. Dont expect Terry.


A defensive wing/PF is what might be coming. I hope for Mcdaniels.

Taking a swing on McDaniels. Could pay dividends down the road.

The meltdown here is insane. Good lord some of you people need lives. The chances anyone picked 25 and lower of being an impactful player for us are slim


Spot on.

Not only that though, but this front office has proven many times it's willing to make multiple deals, acting like our current roster is locked in and finalised and that we won't attempt any further balancing is ridiculous.

Devin Booker was far more successful last season when he shared the floor with Ricky Rubio, per CleaningTheGlass.

Booker + Rubio both on: +6.3 net rating (O 117.4, D 111.1)
Booker on, Rubio off: -6.3 net rating (O 111.4, D 117.7)

Rubio and D'Angelo Russell will share the floor


But Ricky compared to who? we need cheap players who play great.
Did D Russell ask for Rubio?

It's not compared to anybody. It's compared to him being on the floor and the team playing better. He has a history of that. Rubio is a much better player now than when we had him before.

We don't have room for anyone else. I just hope Bolmaro will be worth it. I'm gonna peep Barca games for him

McDaniels boom or bust guy. I’ll take that at number 28. Definitely not going to contribute for awhile.

did they trade 33? I hadn't noticed.

I like Jaden McDaniels too. I was floating videos of him in threads here one week. He looks interesting. Liekly Gleague life though. we'll see.

So why did we trade down from 17 if this is what we are doing?


Right take ricky and a future pick for 17. Bolmaro better be damn worth it.

A lot of people really like him. Time will tell. He has a lot in common with Lamelo Ball, but a better shooter.

Please, not Wikipedia, @LibertyPrime ... Twitter might warn you to be making false and disputed claims.

But I guess Bolmaro might close some mouths at its due time.

Aiyä! guys... most of you probably don't even remember me.

But I'm ready to bandwagon the tundra again.
