The Kings had “eyes” on Sasha Vezenkov and the Final 4 of the Euroleague. Mike Brown’s assistant, Jordi Fernandezwatched his forward Olympiakou and was impressed, but refrained from clarifying whether the MVP of the season will make the jump to the NBA this summer.
“I watched Vezenkov closely. He had a great performance in the Final 4 and the playoffs. He is a player who scores easily, makes everything look very simple. He plays very well without the ball, makes good moves, always takes good positions and is a good rebounder. His productivity in the final was atrocious, he had to finish the game. But with the zone defense, especially in the last quarter, he didn’t get many shots. He tied the Finals record with 29 points and it’s a shame he didn’t win“, he told Eurohoops.
“I can’t answer that because I don’t deal with contracts. All I can tell you is that we have his NBA rights and we came to see him. Mike Brown saw him in the playoffs, Jay Triano saw him in the Cup and I saw him in the Final 4. It’s our job to watch him. He’s a player that intrigues us and interests us, but now it’s important that he does his job, get the league and stay competitive“, he added.
