There are about 100 foreign born players in the NBA...
I get that, but why draft one? There are 50 players as good as Furkam Corkmaz available in free agent market, including D-league, so it's a wasted pick. At least pick someone that has a chance to be great on the high side, and a respectable fill-in on the low side. These foreign players (in general) have no high side

6'6 19 year old that can shoot from anywhere is not a wasted pick. College basketball doesn't create the same quality anymore.
