Virtus Bologna 2023 roster, stats and best five

13 draftable players from Virtus Bologna's 2023 season — full stat lines, a suggested best five, and how this board plays in Road to Glory.

When the draw lands on Virtus Bologna in 2023, this is the board: 13 draftable basketball players, led by Tornike Shengelia at PIR 17.6. You draft exactly one of them for the slot you spun, and they must be placed at a position they actually played — 3 of the 13 can play the point and 5 can play the big spots.

10 of these players count as underdogs (peak PIR under 10), so this club-season is also drawable in Make the Playoffs.

The best five to draft from this roster

Filling the point, two wings and two big spots by PIR while respecting placement rules gives this five. Together they are strongest in rebounding and thinnest in scoring — if you are only drafting one player from this board, the biggest lift usually comes from whoever covers the category your existing four are missing.

  • Daniel Hackett — PG/SG · 8.1 PPG, 3.2 RPG, 3.8 APG · PIR 10.8
  • Tornike Shengelia — SF/PF · 14.5 PPG, 5.0 RPG, 3.4 APG · PIR 17.6
  • Isaia Cordinier — SG · 8.8 PPG, 3.9 RPG, 2.6 APG · PIR 10.7
  • Bryant Dunston — PF/C · 4.8 PPG, 3.7 RPG, 0.9 APG · PIR 7.0

How this board plays

In Classic every stat line above is visible during the draft. In Hidden mode you get only the names and positions, so knowing that Tornike Shengelia led this team is the edge. With 10 underdogs, it is also a workable board for Make the Playoffs.
