I’ll admit, when Adam Silver announced that the New York Knicks were selecting Leandro Bolmaro with the 23rd pick in the 2020 NBA Draft, I let out a chuckle and an audible, “who?”
Little did I know...
Bolmaro’s draft profile back in 2020 was pretty strong. A versatile 6’7” player that could distribute, has a good feel for the game, feisty defender, etc. Shooting was still a work in progress, as was his game overall (as he was just 20), but he had the skills to turn into a solid player.
