Summary:
Zsombor Maronka is an athletic, fleet-footed combo forward that is currently an early-entry candidate for the 2022 draft. He has an array of offensive skills that he can bring to the table, as he can knock down mid-range jumpers, he can handle the ball in the open floor, and he can operate as a tall, point forward on the court. On the other hand, he will need to improve his three-point shot and take smarter shots in games, and he will need to improve his rebounding and defense. He is a project player at this stage of his career, but his intriguing skill set could make him a draft-and-stash candidate in the late second round in the 2023 draft.
