2015 NBA Draft picks: Dimitrios Agravanis picked by Atlanta Hawks 59th
The Hawks will likely leave their last pick of the draft in Greece while he improves into an NBA player.
The Atlanta Hawks selected Dimitrios Agravanis, a 6'10 20-year-old from Greece, with the second-to-last pick in the 2015 NBA Draft. They'll likely leave him overseas as he develops his game.
Agravanis is described as a stretch four -- he doesn’t quite have consistent range from beyond the three-point arc, hitting just 33 percent from there in Greek League play. He’s not quite ready for the NBA yet -- he’s just a role player for Olympiakos, playing 14.4 minutes per game -- so don’t expect him to be in the NBA anytime soon. With one of the best teams in Europe, he’s playing at a pretty high level, so his game should develop nicely.
Agravanis wasn’t expected to be picked in most mock drafts, but with the 59th pick, there’s not many ways you can go wrong. Either the player turns out to be an NBA player, or you wasted the second-least valuable pick in the draft.
