I hear good things about this guy. And he'll likely be there at 30. What do we know about him?

[Mr Fundamental]

I'm from Turkey and i'im watching this guy in Euroleauge. His team Cibona came here and i have to say that he is a great player. His team is very young and Bogdanovic shines in this team.

He is a nice scorer, well offensive plays but he has to develop his defense to play in the NBA.

His potential is too high i think.

Bogdanovic has already worked out in New Jersey and Houston. He has the Thunder on Friday and the Spurs, Wolves and Celtics also lined up before the draft.

All six teams are real possibilities for him in the first. Bogdanovic was the second-leading scorer in the Euroleague this year at 18 points per game. However, he's under contract for the next few years with his new team, Fenerbache, and teams will have to patient. But, he's a good pick late in the first from a talent perspective. If he had no contract issues, he'd be a mid-first-round pick.

Guy is 22 with limited upside. Very slow footed, locked into contract for a couple years. No thanks

Yeah, I think he had a writeup at age 15 on DX, but seems like one of those players that had high upside but never really reached it. The longer you're on the radar, the more they pick your game apart.
