Petar Bjelica

PROFILE

General overview- December 2023

Skilled big with above-average passing vision for his position at this stage and high-level ball handling skills. He knows how to play against double teams from the low post and his mix of size and hands allows him to create advantages. Solid slasher with polished footwork and reliable shooting mechanics. On the defensive end, he's good at securing defensive boards and can match up with a wide repertoire of opponents because of his length. Needs to keep working on his lateral quickness to turn into a more switchable defender for the upcoming stages.

First impression- June 2023

Needs to work on his body. His hips are  wide, but his mobility is good and gives hopes for the future. He's able to switch and does a good use of his wingspan. On the offensive end he's good playing in the post because of his body, but in addition to it his footwork looks good too. Needs to improve his touch. Can put the ball on the floor and has done some slight improvements on his outside shooting.
