Scouting Journals for Niko Bundalo

Niko Bundalo is a skilled lefty with size. Listed at 6-10 he is comfortable on the ball, pushing the break under control. His teams (both HS and AAU) line him up at various spots in the half court and run offense through him. He is a good passer and processes reads quickly. He is a threat as a jump shooter, he will need to continue working on his shot load as it can get a little long, but the base balance and release are consistent with spot shooting. He has embracing being more of a mismatch 4/5 and his game has gone to another level. He finishes well toward the rim. He is a good area rebounder and is a threat to start the offense. He will need to get stronger and continue to tighten the handle and shot (play with a lower center of gravity). There is a lot of production already in play here and a game that continues to evolve each time you see him. He is very competitive also.
