A league scout doesn't think that this year's NBA Draft has much international talent. "European prospects that are in this draft are not as good as they have been in the previous years," the scout told HoopsWorld. "This is definitely not a deep draft as far as talent wise even for European players." Five foreign-born players were drafted in the first round of last year's NBA Draft, but there's a chance that only two or three could have their name called in the top thirty this month. "Unfortunately I think it is just a bad draft year in general. Even in Europe there are a lot of good players but not all of them put their name in the draft," the scout continued. "There may be one or two only European first rounders and I don't think there is clear can't miss prospect out there from Europe in this draft." RealGM Note: Executive Editor Chris Reina has three international players going in the first round of his latest mock draft -- Ricky Rubio, Brandon Jennings and Omri Casspi. |
