6'4" prospect from Lithuania

Sign this kid up!

I like this kid's film a lot. Looks like he fits Crean's style to a "T". I love Euro players. They are so fundamentally sound and can be very creative in a way many US kids are not.

Whoa. Hope he likes hot weather and hot women. He'd look good in red and black (and occasional gray).

Hope CTC can help his 3pt shot, and bring it up from 25%. Maybe the closer NCAA line will help.

Yeah, he's got some form issues, but those can be fixed. I would like to see his shot released from a higher position myself.

He could start for us on day 1.

Right now he is an average athletic 2 guard, who shoots 25% from the International 3 point line. That probably goes up some when shooting from the closer NCAA line. But there is no way he starts in front of Crump, Harris, and maybe Fagan, at the 2/3, and he has just started transitioning to the point guard position. No way he learns the point, while starting, vs SEC athletic defenders.

Europeans usually excel in the NCAA with their perimeter games. This player's perimeter game, at this point, does not get him many minutes next season. Maybe in year 2.

He shot 43% from 3 during the FIBA tourney didn't he.

2017-18 International stats for 47 games, he shot 25%. He might have had a hot streak, but 47 games paints a pretty accurate picture. These stats showed he was shooting 38% in Nov '17 and had a steady declined to 10% in Mar '18. Maybe he had an injury, or just wore out playing 47 games in 6 months. I'm not saying CTC shouldn't sign him, I just think he won't be an instant starter, or big minute getter right away. Over 4 years he could contribute quite a bit. Even start, maybe in a few years.

Ignas Sargiunas signed his NLI w/ UGA per HC Tom Crean:

"We are very pleased that Ignas will be joining our program. As a combo guard, his versatility will help us greatly on both ends of the floor. Watching him play and develop, we have seen that he has great touch as a shooter, he has excellent ball-handling skills, and he provides solid defensive work, not to mention that he plays with poise and can be a vocal leader. His international experience will add a special dynamic to our team. He has proven that he's a winner, and we're happy that he has decided to be a Bulldog."

Hate to see he wont be enrolling for Summer semester, so he could start workouts with the team. Guess Fagan will get a jump on him for freshman guard minutes next season.
