2347401, Bojan Bogdanovic signed for mMLE on three year contract
Posted by Rolo_Tomasi, Tue Jul-08-14 05:36 AM
The Nets long term Euro-stash Bojan Bogdanovic - one of the best players in Europe (allegedly) is going to sign for our mini MLE on a three year contract.

The amount we are paying him is equal to what the number 4 pick in the 2014 draft would earn.

I've seen some videos of him and he is primarily a scorer but not necessarily a long range three point shooter - he isn't a facsimile of Mirza Teletovic - he seems to have a good mid range game and can finish around the basket. As with most Euros his defence against NBA players is probably suspect. Lets hope he doesn't get buried by Lionel Hollins.

It does seem we are getting Bojan in his prime - he is 25 years old. Plus with Kirilenko and Teletovic on the Nets he should settle in more easily.

My hope is that he becomes a scorer in the second unit when the starters are taking a rest.

The Nets bought the No. 31 pick in the 2011 NBA draft, selecting Bojan Bogdanovic.
