Summary:
Maximo Fjellerup was one of the few draft-eligible prospects that participated in the 2017 FIBA Americup, and he has been a primary scorer for Weber Bahia early this season in the Argentinian Liga A.
He still needs to improve his shot selection and his defense, and show that he can succeed against top notch competition regularly, but he could be a player to keep an eye on in the future.
