Martynas Andriuskevicius • 7-2, 199, 18 (years old), Lithuania |
Experts' take:
"Came in as the best player in the camp...More aggressive this year than last year...Didn't dominate...Very good passer...Sees the double team well...Can shoot the three consistently, which is amazing at his size...I didn't see much improvement over last year...I expected more from him...Tenacious...Loves to get the blocked shot...You can't find what his strongest and weakest points are, he's average in everything...He's stayed at the same level...This is a big season for him, if he plays on his senior team he can improve...He has a big body that has potential."
Marco Belinelli • 6-5, 192, 18, Italy |
Experts' take:
"Already starts some games for Kinder Bologna...
Among the 18 year olds here, his biggest advantage is that he is already playing in the senior level in Italy and playing in the toughest competition in Euroleague, the strongest professional league in Europe. That is not typical for Italian players at his age...
The competition at the senior level gives him confidence compared to players in other countries...He has great potential physically...He needs to impove in contact play...He can create shots, but sometimes looks for extra moves...Physically he's very explosive, very quick with the ball...He has a long range but his shot selection is not always proper...His upper body must get stronger."
Vilmantas Dilys • 6-10, 197, 17, Lithuania |
Experts' take:
"He can be an outstanding player...He's better than Pau Gasol was at the same age....Strong lefthander....Has great quickness and ballhandling for his size...Has confidence at his size playing at an outside position....He needs to use his size more in the low post....
If he could work a little bit more on his physical body, he can be unstoppable."
Danilo Gallinari • 6-8, 192, 15, Italy |
Experts' take:
"Still growing...could be a 7-foot point guard...Has great ballhandling skills at his size...Grew 3-4 inches in the last year....Great future...He understands the tempo and reads the defense and creates open spaces for his team...Very interesting player."
Martynas Pocius • 6-4, 177, 18, Lithuania |
Experts' take:
"He's the biggest surprise for me...Made some incredible moves today...All the kids from Lithuania were excellent...Reminds me of Rex Chapman...Great shooter...Very good ballhandler...Pretty good passer...Defense--so-so--typical of Lithuania players...After 3 days, he's the best player in the camp...
Plays high school basketball in the States, which is an advantage for him."
Ivan Siriscevic • 6-5, 192, 17, Croatia |
Experts' take:
"Very interesting player...Typically Croatians don't get good coaching, with good coaching and a stable club, he
has a chance to improve and be one of the best players...I saw a lot of quickness in him...
Very good shooter, good ballhandler, tough competitor, he plays with a lot of passion...I like him, a bit of an underdog...When he has the ball he know what to do with it."
