Deni is a 4th year PF who has scored 13 per 36 with a 45/32/74 shooting split. So far he's a floor-bound Mario Hezonja
he just averaged 15/7/4 on 51/37/74 shooting in just 30mpg as a 23 year old. His PER 36 this past season was 18/9/5 and he's only getting better every year. Mario never sniffed those numbers and was nowhere near the complete player. not sure the comp there other than they are both EURO?
and they both suck. He was stagnant for 3 years than he played better on the most unserious team of all time. He still shot like trash above the break and was only decent offensively despite getting way more on-ball reps and touches than he would anywhere else in the league. I can't imagine how fast Knick fans would turn this guy when his job was to get a touch every 5 minutes and try a CnS 3. The idea that Mitch couldn't or shouldn't land Deni is crazy
