He's a shooter.

Re: Damjen "The Croatian Hitman" Rudez - headed to Cleveland

We do need shooters. I wonder if his shooting percentage from 3 is near the top of the league, because 10 points per game isn't spectacular. Unless he is off the bench, which is where I would guess we would use him.

Not sure why he'd want to come here. Sergey doesn't even play.

His shooting stroke reminds me of Klay Thompson, obviously Klay is much better but their forms are similar in my opinion.

New coach. new system on offense. We need to find shooters to fill out the roster!

Shot 47.3% from 3 point range over 54 games this past season. Averaged 10.7 PPG in just under 25 minutes. His worst shooting year from three was 42.2%.

Over three seasons and 148 games, he shot 44.8% from three point range. He has consistently shot 42% or better in the Euroleague. He shoots about 50% inside the arc.

Can he defend anyone?If we were worried about shooting Karasev might of played.

Ok let's hope he fits nba game better than euro. He really never seemed anything special. At all. Just don't understand it.

Going back to draft time 2008, I remember the Suns had brought Rudez in for a workout to see whether or not they were going to take him with their second round pick. I'm both surprised and not surprised (that doesn't really make sense, but eh) we are interested in him, given Griffin's history with the Suns, what surprises me though is how out of left field this is.

Pretty sweet stroke. Would definitely help with spacing. I'd rather see him out there than that wooden indian Tristan. If we can get him relatively cheap, then go for it.

@IAmDPick: Croatian shooting specialist Damjan Rudez of Spanish Zaragoza is working on a deal with the Cleveland Cavaliers.
