Which team will draft UCLA's Adem Bona in the second round?
By Ryan Kay
Let's begin to breakdown Bona as a NBA Draft prospect before we look at where he is projected to be selected in the second round.
Adem Bona has the potential to be a solid contributor as an NBA big man, but he has some areas for development, so he was not selected in the 1st round of the NBA Draft.
Pros:
- Elite Defense: Bona is a strong defender with a high motor. He excels at blocking shots, rebounding, and can even guard multiple positions.
- Athleticism: Bona has impressive quickness and leaping ability for his size, allowing him to be a presence on both ends of the court, especially in transition offense.
- Developing Offensive Skills: While not a polished scorer yet, Bona shows flashes of a mid-range jump shot and is a decent finisher around the rim.
Cons:
- Size: Bona is on the shorter side for an NBA center at 6'9, which could be a disadvantage against bigger, stronger players.
- Offensive Versatility: Bona's offensive game is limited primarily to the paint area. He needs to develop his shooting range and ball-handling skills to become a more complete offensive threat.
- Foul Trouble: Bona can be prone to fouls, limiting his effectiveness on the court.
Bona's defensive prowess and athleticism give him a strong foundation for the NBA. If he can continue to develop his offensive game and stay out of foul trouble, he could become a valuable asset for a team.
Let's take a look now at which teams are projected to select him in the 2024 NBA Draft.
