The Los Angeles Lakers selected Bosnian center Ivica Zubac with the 32nd pick of the 2016 NBA Draft.

Zubac is likely a player that won't be joining the NBA for a couple years, so the pick by the Lakers is one for the future of the young team.

At 7-foot-1 (with a 7-foot-4 wingspan), Zubac possesses elite size. The 19-year-old also boasts a well-developed low-post game, with the ability to make a move and finish around the basket.

What Zubac lacks is elite athleticism, and that hurts him on the glass and on the defensive end.
