Summary:

Caio Pacheco is a smart, skilled playmaker that had a very productive season in Argentina’s top league, Liga Nacional de Básquet this season. He averaged 19 points and 6 assists per game, as he was one of the best players in his league during the 2019-20 season. He will need to improve his jump shot and defense, but his ability to score and facilitate on offense could allow him to be a potential second round pick in the 2020 draft.
