After the lottery, Danny Abdia's possible goals in the NBA seem to be diminishing. By most estimates, the young Israeli talent will be selected in the range between the fourth and eighth picks, leaving him with four major teams to choose from: Chicago to pick fourth, Cleveland, Atlanta, Detroit and the Knicks.

In the United States, we discussed the various options last night, and are convinced that the chances that Chicago will choose to lose in the fourth election are high. Only recently was former player Arturas Karnishovas appointed president of the Bulls, and since then he has not hidden his special fondness for talents from European basketball. Abdia, who has been closely watched by the Bulls this season, should be high on his list of priorities.

"Abdia will be a perfect match for the Bulls. He is agile, athletic and diverse who draws comparisons to Tony Kokoch and Scotty Pippin," claimed Bulls mythological reporter Sam Smith, best known for his book "Jordan's Laws." "If the Bulls build on Zac Lavin and Kobe White for the next few years, the small forward position will remain more or less empty. Abdia, with his international experience and his ability to serve as a secondary ball carrier, could solve quite a few problems for the Bulls. Luca Doncic's lite version? It doesn't sound that bad.

Athletic reporter Darnell Mayberry, who covers the Bulls closely, also estimates that there is a high chance that Chicago will choose Abdia. "Karnishovas has made it clear that he will take the best player on the board, regardless of position considerations. When the fourth choice comes, Abdia will probably be the best player there is," he wrote. "In addition, he also perfectly embodies the NBA of today. He's tall, he's diverse, he's smart. In an age of unsteady basketball and of the lineup with a variety of playmakers, Abdia is capable of flourishing in Chicago. It's true that Chicago's immediate need for a center is more urgent, "Even now you can imagine how the Bulls use his size and abilities to adapt to the opponent's high or low lineups. Apparently Abdia has better qualities and instincts than any other prospect Chicago can take in the fourth pick."

In "Bleacher Report", each of the top talents in the draft was compared to an NBA player, and compared Abdia to Gordon Hayward. "Abdia's physical profile and style of play is a mirror image of Gordon Hayward," wrote the site's draft expert Jonathan Wasserman. "Both are at their peak as secondary ball leaders and complementary scorers. Neither of them creates at the highest level there is, but they can penetrate and score from the outside, and Abdia already looks stronger than Hayward was when he came to the league.

" Abdia will not be the main star on a winning team, but there are He has a chance to become a secondary star who knows how to score and deliver, a kind of ideal third option in a winning team. In my opinion, Chicago has the best chance of choosing him. "
