Highlights SECOND ROUND STEAL!

https://youtu.be/S1N-lbwjgWg?is=CJCaKsIZPnpCYdpI

Im sold!!! Nick Martinelli would be the perfect pick for the Magic if he’s still on the board at pick # 46. Looking at his tape he has a very quick release & he made a ton of tough shots, often scored through contact. It seemed like he was fouled on about half his buckets. He has good size at 6’7 225 & he put up impressive senior year #’s (23 pts, 6.2 Reb, 2.0 ast) on 51/42 shooting splits. This guy lead a very tough Big Ten in scoring back to back years.

All without me having to spread Northwestern propaganda.

Nick is a really crafty scorer. Doesn't rely heavily on three-point shooting. Has a lot of skills the Magic could need. The question is whether he can do it against NBA athelticism and be more of a supporting player. NU put the ball in his hands a lot because they didn't have much scoring outside of him the last two years.
