Zvonimir Ivisic

Draft Notes

Ivisic is a stretch-big who has good ball skills and loves to operate on the perimeter.

After his freshman season at Kentucky he joined Coach Cal at Arkansas, then transferred to Illinois the next season.

He moves well for a player of his height but will need to get stronger and add weight to his frame to hold is own in the NBA. Has good lateral quickness and open court speed but isn’t very explosive vertically. He makes up for this with his great size and length.

Shows a lot of promise as a 3pt shooter with a nearly un-blockable shot. And is more than just a catch and shoot player – can handle the rock, shake defenders and get into his jumper.

Has a natural feel for the game, understands spacing, passes the ball well and knows how to be in the right place at the right time.
