Isaiah Hartenstein — F/C (Germany)

As always, there are a few European prospects who need to be considered. Isaiah Hartenstein is built like a prototypical European big.

The seven-footer has drawn comparisons to the European bigs from the past and for good reason. He has the range to hit shots from the perimeter and the size to make an impact on the glass. Hartenstein still has plenty to work on, but his professional experience overseas will help him translate to the NBA.

At 250 pounds, Hartenstein is not just a perimeter threat. He has the strength to fight through opposing big men and score at the rim. The size also serves him well on the boards as he averaged 14.0 rebounds per 40 minutes in his career.

The German native would find a home in Orlando that could work. If he was paired next to Bismack Biyombo or even Aaron Gordon in the front court, his ability to space the floor and play defense would be a special combination.
