Again another international prospect most people won’t know, but Mario Hezonja has some comparisons to Manu Ginobili of the San Antonio Spurs. Like Ginobili, Hezonja is a real raw talent. He only averaged 5.8 PPG for Barcelona, but his upside is huge.
He has a great body to play either the 2 or the 3 and for a team like Denver who needs more young guys who can come in a provide quality minutes, Hezonja is the perfect choice.
The best part about Hezonja, if any team takes him and feels like he is not ready, then they stash him in Europe and let his game develop as he ages (he is only 20 years old).
