Who is Filip Hallander?

Filip Hallander, or Hållander if you want it Swedish, is a 20-year-old forward who was drafted by Pittsburgh in 2018.

Yesterday, Dubas said this about him:

Dubas on Hallander: "He was right near the top of our board when we picked in the second round [in 2018]. We selected Durzi & then Pittsburgh selected him with the pick right after … we were kind of hoping he'd fall to the next pick …"

Which is a nice thing to say, but their next pick was number 76 in the third round.
