Zalgiris Kaunas 2007 roster, stats and best five

9 draftable players from Zalgiris Kaunas's 2007 season — full stat lines, a suggested best five, and how this board plays in Road to Glory.

When the draw lands on Zalgiris Kaunas in 2007, this is the board: 9 draftable basketball players, led by DeJUAN COLLINS at PIR 15.6. You draft exactly one of them for the slot you spun, and they must be placed at a position they actually played — 2 of the 9 can play the point and 3 can play the big spots.

6 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 scoring and thinnest in rim defence — 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.

  • Marko Popovic — PG/SG · 11.6 PPG, 1.6 RPG, 2.0 APG · PIR 10.4
  • DeJUAN COLLINS — SG · 11.4 PPG, 4.4 RPG, 4.9 APG · PIR 15.6
  • Marcus Brown — SG · 14.3 PPG, 1.8 RPG, 1.3 APG · PIR 14.0
  • Goran Jurak — PF · 8.1 PPG, 5.9 RPG, 0.9 APG · PIR 9.7
  • Paulius Jankunas — PF · 8.9 PPG, 4.3 RPG, 0.8 APG · PIR 9.1

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 DeJUAN COLLINS led this team is the edge. With 6 underdogs, it is also a workable board for Make the Playoffs.
