"Analysis: Hezonja has great size for the SG position, and can probably play spot minutes at the positions either side of him. But his natural position is SG. He's tall but he needs to get stronger, as many young players do. He's a smart player with a high IQ, who like most European prospects, can do a little bit of everything offensively. Has good handles (though I think he palms the ball sometimes, something he may need to cut out, but it's not going to be an issue long term), good court vision and passing ability, and a good vision of the game. He is a very capable shooter with solid form and a good release. What's going to surprise people is that the guy is an excellent athlete. I'm not talking about being an excellent athlete for a euro, I'm talking about being an excellent athlete by NBA standards. A level below elite, but he is very fluid, quick and has major hops. If he gets a chance, he's putting you on a poster. Something I like about him is that he has an attitude (in fact this has been a knock on him according to some sources), he doesn't back down from anyone and he's highly competitive. Some people have said that he's troublesome to deal with. I'm not sure how true this is or isn't. I do know he hasn't had any major issues (or minor for that matter). It's probably nitpicking to cite this as a weakness as by all accounts he's a good guy. I'd personally prefer someone who has that fire. Weakness wise, he needs to get stronger, his defense isn't bad and he has solid potential there due to his size and athleticism, but as with most young players, he has work to do. He's going to have to change his mindset when he gets to the NBA. I think he has great potential and will watch him with great interest, but given where we'll be drafting, he's not at the top of my list, especially given that we've just drafted two SGs. I think he's going to take a few years to really hit the ground, but he can be a very good player for a team in the future. -- Dime Dropper"
I think this is a good description of Hezonja, but the conclusion doesn't follow from the description. It's irrelevant whether the Kings have drafted two, three, four or more players who fit into the abstract category of shooting guard, unless those players are clones of Hezonja. If the Kings pass on Hezonja because they truly believe there is a more talented player available, so be it. But if they pass on him because they already have two "shooting guards", that's dumb, dumb, dumb, and it will be just another draft in which considerations other than the talent of the player in question rules the day.
