Of all the players expected to be taken in the first round of the NBA Draft, French prospect Timothe Luwawu might be the one to watch. Most mock drafts have Luwawu going in the mid-late teens, but he could potentially interest suitors in the No. 10-13 range.
Oh, and Timothe is also one of the green room invitees, so you might get to see his girl, Alice Muccio.
Draft Express’ scouting report on the 21-year-old Frenchman:
A player we’ve covered in significant detail earlier this season, Timothe Luwawu’s season came to a slightly premature end as he suffered an ankle injury in late May that held him out of the Serbian League playoffs. One of the biggest riserx among international prospects this season, the talented Frenchman showed massive improvement from last season ending the year averaging 14.5 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 2.8 assists over 30.1 minutes per game. Possessing terrific size and athleticism for a wing to go along with an improving frame, Luawau’s intrigue at the NBA level has always started with his physical tools, but his improved jump shot and play in a large role for prospect-rich Mega Leks are the reason he’s regarded as highly as he is heading into the 2016 NBA Draft.
