Matas Buzelis - GLI
Lithuanian born but he spent most of his time in the states, played for Brewster Ac.
top 5 pick dark horse imo, 6-10 with guard skills, legitimate handle/passing ability, can shoot, drive, + athleticism and length, high BBIQ and competitive. projected archetype/role is point-forward and stretch four.
not many are talking about him currently but I have him ranked 4th overall in the 23 class in my updated rankings, and obv still super early and anything can change but at this point he looks pretty ridiculous.

Re: Matas Buzelis - 2023
Curious how his body is going to fill out. He seems like a huge boom or bust guy to me. But with that said, Im all on the boom side with him. I was pretty pissed when I heard Duke backed off of him.

Yeah, G league bound in 2024, pretty interesting. Lithuanian federation desperately trying to recruit this kid, but all signs show that he considers himself American and is not interested in Lithuanian NT.

He might be age eligible but he is completing his senior year this next school year and then joins the G League

Sorry man, I truly apologize. Having little ownership in the rest of your world probably makes these threads extra special for you.

Re: Matas Buzelis - G League
Ya the dude is a beast.
He is pretty rare where he is actually a 6'8-6'9 guy with a legit dynamic handle. This isnt just a highlight thing of a couple random clips of him showing off a random dribble move. Most high school mixtapes they try and make everyone look like they can be a point forward (I think we all remember Ballislife's "Is Kevon Looney the next Kevin Durant" haha).

I feel like that’s probably what Franz looked like in high school.

Re: Matas Buzelis - G League
Definitely should reclass. Terrific prospect. The skill level of these youngsters 6'5+ is getting crazy.
