Iggy Brazdeikis Stats

In his only season at Michigan, Brazdeikis proved he can be a competent scorer in a variety of ways. He can score off the dribble, on the move, catch-and-shoot and he hits his free throws. Iggy averaged 14.8 points for Michigan, leading the team as a freshman. He shot 46.2 percent from the field, 77.3 percent from the free-throw line and he hit 1.5 3-pointers per game (39.2 percent).

The weakest part of Iggy's game is his athleticism. He may struggle to guard the quicker players at small forward, but he's also not big enough to stop the top power forwards near the basket.

Iggy Brazdeikis NBA Draft Predictions

Atlanta Hawks (No. 35) or Philadelphia 76ers (No. 33, 34, 42 or 54)

The Hawks are in rebuild mode and have all the time in the world to develop talent. After trading Taurean Waller-Prince to the Nets, the only true small forward they have on the team is DeAndre' Bembry. Iggy can develop into a do-it-all forward who could compliment Trae Young.

While it is likely the 76ers pull off some sort of trade with these four second-round picks in order to move up, they will have opportunities to take Iggy, who will fill a need on their second unit. The 76ers bench accounted for just 31.7 points per game last year, which ranked as the fourth-worst in the league. As a natural scorer, Iggy would fit well with the second unit.
