Jan Vesely: Off the Bounce and Off the Ball

We won’t know the direction of this team until we know who the next coach will be, but I feel like we need to find a SF who can spread the floor. Vesely isn’t that guy, he shoots less than 30% from behind the arc. Draftexpress.com has a great write up on him, based on what they’ve said, I don’t think he feels a need. They talk about his athletic ability and length but complain about his lack of basketball IQ and range. The biggest negative (for me) was that he is an extremely poor rebounder at SF. Considering the fact that he is 6’11″, I’d expect rebounding to be a strength.

Finally, he has a complicated buyout that will be based on what position he is drafted in. He may not come over next year. For a team that expects to compete for a playoff position next year, shouldn’t we be thinking about someone who could make an immediate impact?

This guy reminds me of Yaroslev Korolev.

I would love to have this guy, but I don’t know about waiting 2 or 3 years for him. Maybe if we get someone like Gay or Iggy to play the three we won’t need this guy so soon.

vesely is great he likes partizan,and loves playing here,he is shouting 44 % from 3,no 30 %,like some guy said before,he is athletic,great deffender,plays couple positions,has good skils,and good shot,and he jumps amazin!! so i think he needs to stay at least,one more year in europe improve some aspects of his game (dribling ball,one on one skills,post play) and then he can come in nba,i watched every partizan game this year,and i can tell you he us amazing prospect,he will be great in nba you will see.
