Jonas Jerebko?

How about this guy, he is climbing the draft charts like wildfire. How about him with our 23rd or 31 if he falls?

Apperantly his chart climbing is due to his excellent preformance at the Euro camp. He is a defensive minded SF with some offensive skills to boot. I like him better then Cassipi at this point, and I wouldn't mind us picking him up.
 
Sort of like Casspi in many ways--he's only 210 lbs so unless he puts on weight he undoubtedly would have to slide down to SF. Sheer hustle player--gets a ton of offensive rebounds and can get in passing lanes, and that along with transition play helps him to scour easy points (he's very good at 2-pointers). He's more perimeter oriented than Casspi and doesn't get to the line as much as one would like, but his jumpshot might need some work (he's at 35% from international three) and his scoring rate is not very impressive so offensively he might have more problems succeeding in the league. Role player all the way--lacks ball skills and while he's very active and energetic I don't think his offense is that good, so he might just be relegated to hustle player in the NBA. Needless to say, I like Casspi much more than Jerebko--Casspi's also a year younger. That being said, he's a potentially interesting guy to stash in Europe just to see if he make his jumpshot more respectable...so he's probably a pick between #33-40.
 
Not much upside as a scorer, but (based off what I've read about him) it seems he's a long pretty athletic defensive/hustle oriented combo forward with a good set shot. Good role player potential, maybe like a Robert Horry type player.
