 I spent a fair amount of time scouting both Zubac and Zizic I still feel confident that Zizic is a better prospect even though Zubac is off to a good start.
Žižić looks much more switchable, along with his interior presence. Zubac will never be able to go far away from the basket. Zubac has softer touch.
I see the center position as a defense-first one.
In that sense Žižić looks like a better bet to me aswell.



 That's a TP Andro.

 I felt the Same way predraft and Zizic was the only player I've ever correctly picked for the Celtics in that slot.

 Andro what's with the name Andro? Just curious.

Like to see this.... At 1:27... Good looking form. Maybe it can be extended out to the 3

tp for the video.

yes, his form looks fine on the mid range shots i have see, which means less than a dozen. :)

i think zizic will be a good nba player and help the celtics. he plays in the pick and roll very well.

Zizic looks like a younger, longer version of Al Horford.

How cool is that?

Ante looking good!! He shoots with the wrong hand when he goes to the left in the post though, he's got to develop that left handed shot inside.

His good foul shooting projects well for outside shot including 3 pointer. Practice.

 Andro what's with the name Andro? Just curious.
It is common Croatian name, like almost all western words it derived from Greek word. Name is represented mostly in the Dubrovnik city area, meaning brave and manly. Croatian male names often end on a letter "O".
In my case there was some cosmic togetherness involved, since, when my mom was pregnant, my aunt saw our basketball olympian Andro Knego (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andro_Knego) in a tram, and proposed  the name to my parents. With my father being a Cibona Zagreb season ticket holder and with Andro Knego being what he was (80s mans man), my mother agreed. Some of that basketball root definitely stuck on me. Sorry if I took it to detail too much.

And Andro was the bodybuilding supplement that reporters saw in Mark McGuire's locker.

It looks like Zizic was going up against Colton Iverson in part of the clip as well.
thanks for the link.

The write-up was the best part. especially this...

Ubacila je Darušafaka u brzinu više i nakon šest vezanih poena Willa Clyburna povela s četiri razlike (19:15).

Physically and athletically, Zizic reminds me some of Cole Aldrich. The way Zizic moves reminds me of Aldrich. The athleticism, the quickness, the leaping ability reminds me of Aldrich.

Clearly more comfortable in the post on offense than Aldrich. Plus looks an inch or so taller.

Wow, let's hope he is NOT Cole Aldrich and his career 3.3 pts 3.5 TRB/game  :police: ;D
