Summary:
Vit Krejci is an athletic, energetic point forward that has recently declared to enter the 2020 NBA Draft. He has shown flashes of his all-around skills, but he did not see much playing time in the Spanish ACB league this year. He’ll need to improve his jump shot and be a more disciplined defender in games, but he is an intriguing long-term prospect that could potentially end up getting selected late in the second round as a draft and stash pick for a team in the NBA.
