Before anyone asks: No relation. It’s Vukcevic with a ‘k’ not Vucevic like Nikola.

Great contract!

I always liked Vuk

He is a great shooter, “Mirotic” lite

He had a rough start to the season, but he got better.

A nice offensive edition as a center off the bench, although his rebounding game and lack of vertical speed (he can’t defend well because of it) seem to be his main flaws in his game. His 3PT% took a drop by 10% (from around 37% to 27%).

I would defintely take him for $9M/3~yr deal - this is good signing by the Wizards.

I think he’d shine as a PF for a team that needs shooting at the 4

A Mirotic type of role

Feels like he’s to slow to plate defensively at the 4

The 4 seems to be the easier position to hide a bad D big

I might be wrong, tho

I think you can hide him a little at the 5 since one of AD or Sarr would be at the 4
