Sergio Llull (age 29)

Stats: 16.5 points, 6.2 assists (Euroleague)

Sergio Llull is an absolute beast. He is undoubtedly the most entertaining player to watch in this year’s Euroleague. At the moment, he is averaging 16.5 points and 6.2 assists per game and has proven himself to be lethal at the end of closed games.

Llull took over at Real Madrid’s helm when the aforementioned Sergi Rodriguez left for the Sixers and the team now dances at his frantic groove. He is a skilled slasher and a deadly shooter who is not afraid to take the last shot (and make it).

Unlike most of his European counterparts, his body is built for the pros and should be a rich man’s Jose Calderon for years to come.

NBA Fits: Sacramento Kings, Houston Rockets, Los Angeles Clippers
