This is not a stash and dash. I think the Hawks are going to try hard to talk him into coming over to play this year. I had him in the low 20's so getting him in the 2nd round is a steal.

What's his contract amount and buyout? Hawks are limited in how much of it they can pay towards the buyout.

Is he a candidate for the new 2nd Round Exemption contract like MoG signed (4years) last year? And is it enough to cover the buyout+.

Since Topić left for Red Star, Djurišić was by far Mega (Jokić former club) best player. He is tall, strong, good stroke, very aggressive in defense, looks like a leader on the team with older players (sometimes cocky like Dončić) Maybe I'm subjective, but in my opinion he is the best European player in his generation (Topić is a year younger). It will be interesting matchup with Risacher. I wouldn't be surprised if he dominates the Summer League.

While I’d like to see us on a different path at center, I am much more scared of us running it back with Trae and DJM than I am with Capela.

Yea it's not like Capela was the main reason we sucked on defense, he was still pretty much our highest value defender last year. Issue is he seems to be limited won't play big minutes and outside of Okonguw, who also misses a ton of time routinely, we have just one big on the entire roster that showed he's NBA caliber in Bruno.

There's a real possibility Durisic would be better out of the gate than Zacch given playing time.  This is a good pick up at an exceptional value.

I think he looks like a bigger version of Bogi, he needs to fix his shot. I really like the player and I think he could end as a steal.

Good pick

Djurisic is listed as 6’7, but that is his height without shoes.

That’s taller than Cam Reddish, Taurean Prince and PJ Washington.

That’s the same height as Marvin Williams, Rudy Gay, and Michael Beasley.

This dude is the height of a lot of PFs with the play style of a Bogi.
