The Wizards selected Serbian Forward Tristan Vukcevic with the 42nd overall pick. He currently plays for KK Partizan of the Serbian KLS.
At 20-years-old, Vukcevic is still under contract for next season, so he may be a draft-and-stash player unless the Wizards arrange a buyout.
Vukcevic is 7-0 tall and shot well from everywhere in a strong international league. Scouts project him as a stretch big if he makes the jump to the NBA.
ESPN’s Jonathon Givony reported that although many expect Vukcevic to stay in Serbia next season, Vukcevic has expressed a desire to enter the NBA next season.
