Why hasn't anyone mentioned bogdan bogdonovic? He's capable of playing the pg/sg/SF, long arms, athletic, great stroke, tight handles,good vision and defensive instincts, he's got the entire package and yet only projected to be a late first round pick. DX has him slated at #27 right now, which would pose tremendous value for the team that steals him there. I see a bit of Manu Ginobili in his game, he is unique in his own way however but I do see him being very successful in the NBA.

Here is his scouting video, pretty impressive array of skills this kid has. http://communitywebline.ca/torontoraptorsbasketball

I think there's serious questions about his willingness to come over

I don't know if I see Manu, but I definitely see something in him. He's a good three and D guy with good height and length. I think he reminds me of a player in the 90s, but I can't put my finger on it.

Yep. My friend recently spoke with him and he said he wants to play in Spain for a couple of seasons first but he will come to the NBA in the end, no doubt. A perfect draft and stash guy.

Predrag Danilovic (ex Miami Heat and one of the best European guards in the last 25 years)? His game indeed reminds me of him.

Danilovic was a lot better than him at his age. Late 1st/early 2nd and stashing would be ok.

Makes sense then, I think he's lottery worthy if he declared this year and would come over right away.

I'm calling it now, steal of the draft. My money is on Spurs or OKC drafting him late 1st and making out like bandits.

He is definitely NOT Manu. Manu is much much quicker than Bogdanovic.

Who said he was manu? I specifically said "he's a bit like Manu, but unique in his own way". How you interpret that as me saying he's Manu is a reading comprehension fail on your part.

Don't know that much about Bogdanovic but would "more athletic Bellinelli" be a fair comparison? Seems like the kind of Euro San Antonio would stash.

I've been saying it for months, he's a European Jamal Crawford in the making. Could be the steal of the draft. I doubt he's still on the board by the second round.

Yes. To me he reminds me of Aaron Afflalo a little bit.

All Bogdanovic's pts from Serbian league finals.

Belinelli was more athletic than Bogdanovic before coming to the NBA where he gained body mass and lost quickness and footwork... and a better shooter than Bogdan.

The serbian is a better all-around player and has probably a better offensive arsenal...

So sick, not only does his jumper look beautiful but his non-3pt game is impressive to me, great first step/ballhandler, some in between stuff. I see a lot of Brandon Roy

The so called "pro scouts" really dropped the ball on evaluating this kid.
