So a lot of Bender Bashers cite his lack of productivity on his team and in his league as a major, major red flag...cool...I can see that point.

So maybe you'll like Hernangomez...

"The 6'9 face-up power forward is putting up historic numbers with Estudiantes for a player his age. His 11.3 points ranks as the highest per game scoring average for a player under 21 since Rudy Fernandez's 13.7 ten years ago. Additionally, his 20.6 PER ranks is second best in the last decade as well (behind Nikola Mirotic), eclipsing some big names (Ricky Rubio, Tiago Splitter, Serge Ibaka, Kristaps Porzingis, Ersan Ilyasova, and his older brother Guillermo/Willy [drafted by the Knicks last June]) in the process so far." - January 18, 2016

"Hernangomez's athleticism, length, toughness and intensity are all reflected in the way he competes on the glass, as he's one of just a handful of players under the age of 21 to average over 10 rebounds per-40 minutes in the ACB in the past 25+ years." - January 18, 2016

Could be nice for the third first round pick.

From the videos I have seen he is a chucker and soft on D. He also needs to get stronger.

He reportedly did really well working out for the first time in US in front of 60+ executives.

I'm curious to see whether he can play the SF position in the NBA. If so; he would be a good pick with one of our early 2nd round picks.
