Some highlights from the Nike Hoop Summit.

glad they showed some practice clips. heard he was killing those. had a off game against the US. Slav is gonna be legit once he hits the league though.

Visiting Kansas and Virginia this weekend. Michigan may get a visit but doubtful. I'd like to actually see him play so I'll hope for Virginia.

He will be there next year?

wow, this a smash for Self, terrific recruit out of nowhere

Kansas level at the wing is terrific, Selden, Mykhailiuk, Greene, and Oubre, plus Mason, Graham and Frankamp at the Guards...

wow

I think he can outplay Selden right off the bat.

He won't see many minutes until his 2nd year, unless he or Selden plats the 1. He is too weak.

He's 6'6" and can shoot. He will get minutes right off of the bat at Kansas, especially considering how poor their perimeter shooting was last season. He just needs to get stronger.

yeah i was thinking that too. but that's still pretty damn good to pick dude up and let him take his lumps from Seldon and get used to NBA level athleticism guarding Oubre in practice. Slav should be alright along side Charles Matthews in a couple years.

yeah, he needs to get his weight up. he was a late arrival but he looked physically outmatched at the hoop summit.
kid is still only 16. he'll be on the 2 yr plan i think.

Kansas is ridiculously stacked at the wing. Wonder who's going to lose out. Think Selden/Oubre/Greene will be above Mykhailiuk on the depth chart. Maybe even Mason and Frankamp, but I hope not. Will be tough to find minutes and touches on that team, which will be annoying in terms of his development.

I'm not sure he'd outplay Selden just yet, he's not physically ready. Still a bit thin and will have trouble guarding bigger/stronger players, but of course he'll only be 17 for the entirety of his freshman season.

[rant] Kansas needs to let their wings create more off the dribble. Would hate to see Mykhailiuk relegated to being a spot-up shooter. [/rant]

maybe i'm holding on for that Seldon jump but I was thinking with all that depth Slav might have a problem getting tic if for no other reason than its just not his turn yet.

What would be his comparison? Heard Ginobili, Stauskas...

reminds me a lot of Stauskas. A shooter who's quick and shifty off the dribble with underrated athleticism. Myhkailiuk may be a more natural passer, but that remains to be seen. Will probably have similar issues on defense.

I've heard Belinelli which seems to be the go-to as Stauskas and Marc Garcia also draw that comparison

Ginobili was in another stratosphere as far as athleticism and shake imo

ManualRam · Post #57 » by **ManualRam** » Wed May 21, 2014 6:25 pm

he's more athletic than stauskas.

Have you guys seen footage of Manu w/ La Roja or in Italy? No way in hell is he that type of athlete.
