The Washington Wizards have drafted Aaron White with the No. 49 pick in the 2015 NBA Draft.

Interestingly, Draft Express’ Jonathan Givony reports that White -- who is a four-year senior out of Iowa -- will be stashed in Europe next season. While it’s not incredibly common, sometimes Americans do go that route and White may have made that known or worked it out with Washington prior to the events on Thursday.

At Iowa, White was a 6’9 forward who played both positions. He averaged 16 points his senior season while hitting a career-best 36 percent from behind the arc and 52 percent from the floor. He also grabbed seven rebounds in 32 minutes a night.

Washington must see something in him to nab him and see if he can develop his game a little more while overseas. White will turn 23 in September but still has time to perhaps grow into a do-it-all bench player at the NBA level.
