The first NBA season was not the brightest for 28-year-old Saš Vezenkov. The Bulgarian forward, who became a European superstar with Olympiacos, participated in 42 regular season games with the Sacramento Kings, scoring 5.4 points and 2.3 rebounds.
Along with 25-year-old American guard Davion Mitchell, who scored 5.3 points in 72 games last season, having his most modest season in his three years in the NBA, Vezenkov was traded to the Toronto Raptors. In exchange for both basketball players, Sacramento “Kings” acquired the rights to the 45th pick of this draft and 26-year-old Jalen McDaniels, who scored 3.4 points in 50 games played for the Canadian team.

With this deal, the Hawks have acquired the right to select the 44th player in this year’s draft.
