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.

Mario Hezonja, G/F, Croatia

6'8" | 200 lbs. | 20 years old

2014-15 stats:

16.5 minutes, 7.7 points, 2.0 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 0.6 steals 

Selection:

First round, fifth overall to the Orlando Magic

Quotable:

"A little bit of an inconsistent shot but a workable looking jumper where he can hit shots from the perimeter. He can also put the ball on the floor and attack the basket a little."

Analysis:

A versatile player, Hezonja gives the Magic a little flexibility if Tobias Harris departs via free agency. Like Minnesota, the Magic are putting together a very talented and balanced young core with Nikola Vucevic, Elfrid Payton, Victor Oladipo and now Hezonja.
