Atlanta Hawks Prospect Watch: Dimitrios Agravanis in October

The Hawks selected Greek big Dimitrios Agravanis with the 59th pick of the 2015 NBA Draft. His stretch-five potential and youth made him an extremely draft-and-stash option. He showcased his abilities with the Greek Under 20 team in the 2014 FIBA Europe Under-20 Championship. He showcased an ability to stretch the floor (14/44 3-point shooting) and shot-blocking abilities not usually seen in shooting bigs (1.5 blocks per game).

The EuroLeague is commonly known as the second-best basketball league in the world, behind only the NBA. Agravanis currently suits up with Olympiacos Piraeus, a perennial winner in the league.
