2011 NBA Draft Scouting Report: Nikola Vucevic
Position: Power Forward
Size: 6-10, 260
School: USC, Junior
Strengths:
Weaknesses:
Summary: Despite likely being a second-round pick, Nikola Vucevic has declared for the 2011 NBA Draft and already signed with an agent. He has nice size and touch for a big man, but lacks the ideal athleticism for the next level which should hold him back from being a first-round pick.
Player Comparison: Kosta Koufos. While Koufos is more of a true center, Vucevic possesses many of the talents as most European big men. He has a nice face-up game and moves on the block, but his lack of athleticism makes him a liability at the next level. If Vucevic can continue to improve his outside shooting, he should have a better pro career than Koufos.
