Deni Avdija NBA Draft Scouting Report
Deni has an intriguing skill set with his ability to stroke the 3pt shot and score in the half court. He plays an all around game, has a decent physical build but his greatest NBA skill is his shooting ability.
As a 6-8 3pt shooter he doesn't need a lot of space to get his shot off and he's got a smooth, quick and just about picture perfect release. He shoots with confidence, follows through on his shot
Another big strength is his passing ability, which reminds a little bit of Luka Doncic. He's a quick slasher who draws the defense and can light opposing teams up with his passes. He's not really a primary ball-handler type of player but he can create offense for himself and others.
On defense he's purely a wing, lacking the strength and power to guard in the paint and lacking top end agility to stay with guards. He gives good effort and seems to know team concepts and when to help defend but don't expect him to make any all defensive teams. His less than ideal +1 wingspan doesn't help.
