Notes:
2009: Selected by Detroit in 2nd round (39th overall) of the NBA Draft; signed 2-year, $914,000 contract, August 7th...2010: NBA All-Rookie Second Team...2011: Re-signed with Detroit to a four-year deal worth $18 million.

DRAFT ANALYSIS - A power forward with impressive quickness and speed, giving him the ability to run the floor...Has the tools to be a consistent scorer, and if he develops a variety of post moves he could be a dangerous threat in the paint, as well as from the perimeter...Like most young European players, he will need to add some muscle so he can avoid being man-handled in the paint at the next level...Tends to avoid contact, which takes away from his rebounding abilities.
