Age- 18
Height- 6'11
Weight- 240
Position- C
Former Team - Latvia
Strengths
He has the size and is very long. Biedrins has a great wingspan and is quick in the paint. Unlike some other Euro big men, he loves playing inside. Guy is a great rebounder and defender for someone so young. Good dunker and finisher around the hoop. High energy player.
Weakness
Has a very poor outside shot and scouts doubt his ability to ever develop one. Scoring potential is somewhat limited. Has played against questionable competition in the past coming from Latvia. Is he NBA ready or will he take some time to develop?
Scout's Take
Questions about his outside game and the competition he has faced could scare some teams away, but for a team willing to take him for what he is, a high energy center who will rebound and block shots, he will be worth a 1st round pick. His inside game that has the ability to blossom should he add a post move or two. Top 15.
