Let’s start with Charles Maniego’s Draft Card for Rodions Kurucs and add his nickname: Rodi.
The Nets had been high on Rodions Kurucs for some time. We can go as far back as March 2017 when Sean Marks went to in Barcelona, Spain to scout the young Latvian, who now is only at 20-years-old, and won’t be 21 until February.
The soon-to-be FC Barcelona import is a legitimate 6’9, 220-pound combo forward, whom the Nets will presumably use, in either Brooklyn or Long Island, to stretch the floor and guard multiple positions.
