NBA prospect Jakob Poeltl: 'I can be a lot like Pau Gasol

[Lebron23]

[quote]University of Utah standout center Jakob Poeltl has begun his journey to the NBA, and as a projected lottery pick in this year's draft, has received comparisons to NBA players aplenty, particularly Golden State Warriors center Andrew Bogut, who also played his college ball at Utah before being chosen with the first overall pick in 2005.

If you ask Poeltl, he has the potential to resemble a different kind of big man: Six-time All-Star Pau Gasol.

I hope he becomes the next Pau Gasol. Gasol is one of the best international players of all time, and He's been getting underrated by these Kobetards.

NBA scouts called him the most NBA Ready Center in his draft class.

One game doesn't take away a whole season, but it really showed his weaknesses.

Let's wait and see .

Pau gasol is a 2x NBA Champion. Every big men wants to be Garnett, Duncan, and Dirk. but Pau Gasol was the 4th best Power Forward in their era.

This guy looks very good. Needs a steroid cycle or two, but otherwise the complete package.

As usual he will slip too low because of being Euro, but will be a steal.

[Lebron23]

Solid fundamental Skills. He has a 36 inches vertical leap.

[Lebron23]

He's gonna be a solid pick for the Raptors or Bucks.
