| Pleiss, Tabor | Germany | 7'0" | 220 | C | 11/2/1989 | Pleiss is a fairly mobile yet slight, 20 year-old Center. He is able to rebound the ball at an NBA level right now but he really needs to be stronger physically. …He also shows an understanding of reading offenses - making the correct cut and the right time. …He has a soft touch and shoots 73% from the line for all the attempts I can find for him. …Worrisome in his case however is 46% FG shooting - which is low for a seven footer. What that usually translates to is a guy that likes to shoot more jumpers than he should given his size. ...He also doesn't pass much. He had just 15 assists in the 1075 minutes I have logged for him in 2009-10. ...According to DraftExpress.com - Pleiss has established that he would like to play in the Spanish ACB League first before jumping to the NBA. For this reason - if he is picked in the second round - I would expect that he stays in Europe to hone his skills before appearing in NBA arena down the line sometime. |
Where do I expect Pleiss to be taken? Somewhere around 49th.
Our best advice: In 2003 - the 49th pick was James Jones. We said - "take Kyle Korver".
Our worst advice: In 2005 - the 49th pick was Andray Blatche. We said - "take Ryan Gomes".
