Summary:

Eduardo Francisco is a very athletic, high-motor forward that currently plays overseas for SL Benfica. He’s showing an emerging skill set offensively, and he will make hustle plays to help his team on both ends of the floor, but he will need to continue to improve his jump shot, and he’ll need to be a more disciplined defender in games. If he can continue to hone and improve his overall game, he could perhaps end up making his way to the NBA someday.
