Share

As part of our coverage leading up to the 2015 NBA Draft we will provide profiles of more than 60 prospects, including video interviews with each player, what they're saying leading up to draft day as well as their potential fit on the Bulls.

Olivier Hanlan, PG, Boston College

6'4" | 186 lbs. | 22 years old

2014-15 stats:

19.5 points, 4.2 rebounds, 4.2 assists, 2.0 3-pointers, 35.3 3FG%, 37.6 minutes

Projection:

Second round to undrafted

Quotable:

"I was just ready for the next step. I was confident with my abilities to play on and off the ball, aggressive, and I see so many guys making that next step to the next level and I felt prepared for it."

Fit for the Bulls:

The Bulls do not have a second-round pick, but if they move back into it Hanlan is certainly an intriguing prospect. He has good length and height, can play both guard positions and had three solid years at Boston College in which he grew while dealing with two different coaching staffs. Kirk Hinrich likely will be back if he picks up his $3 million player option, but Fred Hoiberg will need to find a replacement for Aaronm Brooks. That guy could be Hanlan, who excelled with the Eagles playing against murderer's row in the ACC. He has excellent court vision, good range from beyond the arc and a quick first step.
