UNDERDOG
NBA ROLE: (RAW) HYBRID FORWARD
Paul Zipser, a second-round German prospect, spends time at both forward spots in Chicago; at 6’8, Zipser’s shown some versatility – decent shooter* & defender, adept at attacking closeouts from the corner; able to hit 1-2 dribble pull-ups – important shot in the evolution of Zipser’s offensive attack; must become more inventive w/ the rock, add strength & focus on staying disciplined on defense; undefined NBA role – looking to rejoin Fred Hoiberg's rotation (dealt w/ injury/inconsistency in 2017-18) – is Zipser a stretch 4/slasher at his peak?
*slow-ish shot release but is able to lift clean looks even if a defender closes hard
