Vasilieios Charalampopoulos

One of the smartest and more mature players of his generation in Europe. Charalampopoulos possesses long hands and has great size (6-9 feet) for a wing. He is athletic enough for European level, but an average athlete by NBA standards, who lacks lateral quickness. He is a versatile player, who can play either forward position, but at the same time he might be considered a tweener (too slow to guard the perimeter, not big enough to guard power forwards). On offense he can do just about everything: He can put the ball on the floor, penetrate (most times from left side and on straight line drives), shoot at acceptable rate on Catch-and-Shoot situations, play with his back to the basket and even play the P&R as the ball handler. What stands up with him, though, is that he is already considered a great passer. On defense, his physical tools don’t help him against elite athletes, but he is a competitor who is always willing to sacrifice his body. Stefanos Makris (6-2-16)
