CRISTIANO FELICIO (CHI)
#6•C. FELICIO
C • 6’10, 270 lbs; 6th year, Brazil
UNDERDOG
NBA ROLE: BACKUP 5
Plucked by the Bulls during Summer League a few years back, Cristiano Felicio is a reserve big who does well securing o-boards; big, strong, decently athletic – quickly pops up for rolling, two-handed dunks, slides his feet well on D; doesn’t shoot much outside the paint – has (sort of) a line drive J, must work to extend it beyond the FT line; hasn’t yet scratched the surface in terms of facing up or playing w/ his back to the basket – confident as a roll man, connects well w/ guards for oops up top, not a candidate to generate a bucket for himself; most natural trait: activity on the glass, uses size to position himself for 2nd chance opps; in & out of CHI's rotation – is rebounding Felicio’s ticket to more PT?
