- Marko Banic
Banic is a Croatian big man playing in Spain. He scores really really ridiculously efficiently, has great touch around the basket, and can hit a jumpshot, yet is often out of shape, is a bad rebounder, is not physical and is a poor defensive player. But even though I just made him sound like it, Banic is not really like Eddy Curry. Curry is big, athletic and more awkward. Whereas Banic is short, grounded and smooth.
Playing for Bilbao, Banic is averaging 27.5 minutes, 17.5 points, 4.3 rebounds and 72% shooting in the Eurocup, and 26.0 minutes, 14.3 points, 5.0 rebounds and 67% shooting in the ACB. He doesn't just do it on layups, either.
