Matas Buzelis Scouting Report | 2024 NBA Draft Breakdowns



Hoop Intellect does a great job breaking down Matas’ game. Should hopefully help pretty quickly with rim protection and as a cutter offensively.

  1. Giddey will reward his cutting and his rim protection is sorely needed. If he can put on some weight we might finally have a true pf. Despite being skinny he actually pretty wide shoulders so i think he can fill out pretty well.

  2. YoHoochIsCrazy

    i’m so hyped about this guy. he just loves the game. now he’s gonna get to play for his hometown team? sky is the limit

  3. A1Horizon

    The g-league ignite program is notoriously ass, so if Buzelis can work with our guys and get back to shooting how he did his senior hear of HS (similar to what we’re doing with Julian Phillips rn) I genuinely believe he’ll be the best player from this class. That being said, he’s super young so I think there will be a lot of growing pains in his rookie season

  4. BlitzinJz

    He really has great upside. Even if he doesn’t become a star, he can be a very solid role player as long as that shot comes together.

  5. Expectations are pretty low based on how bad the draft was, his inability to shoot/lack of size, and AKME’s inability to draft well. Still, people seem to like the pick so idk

  6. This draft class must really suck if this guy is supposedly a “steal” at 11.

    This is an insanely good pick wtf. Yea the stats weren’t there but 6 9 38 inch vert with his agility and skill is nuts. shooting is always such a leveraged skill for every player but if he can shoot well he is an all star player.

  8. Milkboy1516

    It’ll all come down to where his passing and shooting is so that his game can become realized.

  9. Danny_K_Yo

    He’s a two year minimum devo project, can’t see him doing much his rookie season, but come the 2026-27 season he could begin making a difference. I like this pick way better than had Edey been available and we went with him.
