I did a little research and Efes Pilsen loaned him to a lesser Turkish Basketball League team. His playing time has been a bit spotty and his performance not Earth shattering particularly his 38.7% shooting from the field. I wouldn't be expecting anything from him. He may come and give it another shot, but I don't think he'd make the roster at this point in time.

good looking out... saw some highlights from him and he looked like he was playing great. we drafted him when he was 16 so i knew he needed to develop, i wish him luck because he would be a good boost

He's just not a good player. Not athletic enough to play in the NBA, and isn't strong or quick enough to make up for it. If he ever makes a roster, he'll probably be the 12th man.

I have seen him play last year and his body has change a lot since the draft, and now, he's not as quick as he was before. I am pretty sure he would not bring anything to ATL.
