Paul Zipser, SF, Bayern Muenchen

  • 22 yrs. old
  • 6’8″, 210 lbs.
  • Germany
  • Season Stats: 6.9 PPG, 3.6 RPG, 1.4 APG, 16.6 PER

Draft Express says that Paul Zipser would be asked to play a 3-and-D combo forward role in the NBA. His jump shot is too streaky right now, but the potential is definitely there.

He’s already shown he can be a good defender, but his 6’11.5″ wingspan gives him the potential to be a great one.

Zipser is a long shot choice but an interesting one. Phil Jackson has shown he is willing to take risks in the draft before and Zipser would be one.
