Carlos Delfino

The Skinny:


With the instant success of Argentinian Manu Ginobili with the Spurs this past
season, fellow countryman Carlos Delfino figures to get a lot of attention in
this year’s draft. A good athlete like Ginobili – although not quite as smooth
– Delfino can play both shooting guard and small forward. He has a solid frame
while allows him to penetrate to the basket, where he is adept at drawing
fouls. Delfino is also good enough a shooter to keep defenses honest from the
outside.

It sounds repetitive, but Delfino is in this year’s draft because someone gave
him a first round guarantee. It’s likely from one of the teams late in the
first round who is looking at adding a shooting guard, like Detroit or Minnesota.
