    Evan Fournier (Poiters) is the only international player who's projected as a first (late) rounder on the DraftExpress site.

    This french article from November 2011 claims he was scouted by the Rockets.

    Fournier's wearing a white no.10 jersey in this clip.

    I like Fournier as an SG with serious potential but this quote from DraftExpress does worry me:

    "He showed the ability to finish in transition and in the paint against the other World Team members, but he struggled in the game, shooting 2-8 from the floor, and looking somewhat nervous and clearly being bothered by the length of Team USA at the rim."

    Wouldn't that be funny (sad) if the pick we sent to New Jersey netted them the player Morey wants.

    I know we sent a scout to watch Fournier earlier in the season as well.

    He might be worth a late second round pick. So he can be stowed away to see if he can develop a shot. Nothing more.

    Clearly he is receiving consideration as a mid-first round pick.
