Doncic is a right handed wing that can inject a team with goodness due to his skill. He was the MVP of both the EuroLeague and the Spanish ACB League for 2017-18, and he is widely considered the best European prospect in many years. Doncic averaged 16.1 points and 4.9 rebounds per game in EuroLeague. ...Doncic has extraordinary vision and also the ability to complete the passes through the narrow lanes that he sees. His assist-to-turnover ratio was 2.15-to-1 in 2017-18.  ...Doncic's weakness is his perimeter shooting. He hit just 31% 3-pt. FG in 2017-18. That will have to improve for him to be considered respectable as a threat from deep. ...He hits crazy shots due to his skill level. He is a 79% free throw shooter. ...On defense, Doncic was effective in the EuroLeague due to his high basketball I.Q., and good instincts. Real Madrid was 4.9 points per 100 possessions better defensively with Doncic on the floor. ...Doncic can stand to tone up his body. His diet is reportedly not up to NBA standards and he will likely gain some quickness once he is on a NBA training regimen. We expect Doncic to be among the first four players taken in the 2018 NBA Draft.

 

Good Advice: In 2003, the 2nd pick in the NBA Draft was Darko Milicic. We advised, "Draft Carmelo Anthony."
