What the latest thinking on him coming over next summer? I assume there is a buy out and we’ll be armed with the full MLE (not saying he gets it all).
Nice game, hope he continues to improve.

This kind of game is exactly why I thought it was a good idea to let him get at least one more year in. He is developing very well there. Let him grow till he breaks the pot. People always worried bout the money. Just need to relax and let things develop. Never know if you bring him in to early and it stunts his growth.
Game tomorrow at 1pm CST. Gonna try and catch that game.
Looks good if he doesn’t come over it’s going to be bc of some money thing. He’s got to be better than Joff soon. He’s a true center while Joff isn’t.
Mulitinov continues to have a good year with Olympiakos
In his last five euroleague's game, he had :
10 pts 5 rebounds 3 assists 2 steals on 5/6 shooting against Fenerbache
13 points 12 rebounds on 6/11 shooting against Zvezda
6 points 5 rebounds 1 block 3/7 against Valencia
12 points 7 rebounds 1 assists 1 stl 3 blocks 4/8 against Real
And one really bad game against Milan with 5 fouls in 5 minutes
Some highlights from the game vs Zvezda

Hopefully we can get him over here next year. He can carve out a role as a decent role player
yea, austin could use a quality big
This dude can play at the nba level. He moves well, rebounds well, and has a pretty decent touch around the rim.
I don't know what to think about his prospect of coming over.
Might be Adam Hanga part 2, but I doubt it since he's a first round pick.
considering Joff and his contributions to the team, this guy might come in next season.
Hanga isn’t a bad ball player; both may fill roles next year.
is what somebody will say 3 years from now
Hanga could have been a nice edition to the team, he will probably never come over though. A little late for him now, believe the guy is over 30 already, if not he is close.
Leonard is 26
Any updates?
holding steady.
Career highs in minutes and points in Euroleague, leads Olympiakos in the Euroleague for rebounds and blocks. Rebounds and blocks per 36 down from the last year, 5% in rebounds and and 40% in blocks, but turnovers down 40% and fouls down 55%. The fouls is a big deal, only 3.4 fouls per 36 is a significant improvement. I'm sure it that settling down and not trying to block every shot, while bringing down his block totals, has massively improved his susceptibility to fouls.
I haven't watched one of his games for maybe a month.
But I have no problem saying he's much better than Joffrey.
His only serious drawback would be that I think he still has issues getting out on shooters. I don't think it's an athletic issue, more of a mindset issue. Kind of the opposite of Davis who seems to over commit to contests.

Excellent analysis, thx
Some highlights of Milutinov last games. He was in foul trouble his last three games after one good game against Maccabi.

Thanks Duncan and Onjective - in the clips he looks a lot more comfortable then he did last year. He looks like he is definitely in the paint type of center. I do love that he looks pretty athletic and has good hands and finishes at the rim with Authority. Love his nickname “The Serbian Sledgehammer”. Lol
Solid first half for Milutinov against Real Madrid. He switched onto Doncic a couple of times and didn't get taken avantage of.

Close win for his team. Lots of solid (sometimes illegal) screens and finishing on the P&R. Defense was good as well in the second half even though Doncic managed to draw two fouls on him. Both times he didn't get beaten off the dribble after the switch but on one drive he bit on a pump fake and on the other he got called for a soft foul contesting the shot. I need to see more of him guarding quicker players but he looked good doing it in this game.
And he was facing Walter Tavares who just managed 2 points and 2 rebounds.
I think he'll get away with a lot of illegal screens in the NBA. NBA is just non-stop moving and non stop grabbing screens. He might be even more effective.
I really like the dunk and how it shows off his length and size. He slows down to next to nothing on the break, gets fed the ball, takes a step and takes off from 12-18 inches behind the charge circle and just dunks it.
He should be a great target for a Manu or White.
