Yeah I thought about mentioning him. His highlights and all the physical tools look very impressive for an 18 year old. Last season was the first he saw significant minutes in the ABA, averaged 13/7, peaked with a 38/10 game. Best case he becomes Bojan Bogdanovic. Also worth mentioning Petrusev was the ABA league MVP this year following in the footsteps of Jokic, Saric and Bitadze.
I´d pick up three early 2nd round picks and I take Petrusev, Prkacin and Aldama. Just play the odds. You won´t find many European ABA MVPs or Euro U18 MVP big men that went total bust in the NBA. If you take three of them in the same draft, you get at least one 10 year NBA player out of this imho. It´s just playing the odds of Euro bigs in the 2nd round.
