    I like his handle. And he can looks comfortable going left or right. Add a decent midrange game and he looks like a good prospect.

    If he's drafted, his nickname HAS to be Mr Bojangles.

    Gypsies are at least as dark as Mexicans.

    Their 3pt line is like 2-3 feet shorter than the US one, and the trapezoidal key sorta make it more difficult to get inside and finish. He has a tight dribble going either way, so I think that slashing trait will transfer into the pros. But he doesn't seem to have much speed/athleticism. He only shoots 41% from 2pt range, that's not good.

    Not good shooting stats combined with little to no athleticism isn't a very good combination. I say he's nothing in the league.

    Added to all of this, he just signed with Fenerbahce, buyout details unknown. I'm starting to think that
    (a) Amick got the wrong Bogdanovic (easy to confuse because the other one's called Bogdan Bogdanovic)
    and
    (b) he said this before the right Bogdanovic withdrew from the draft (on Monday).
