My guess is that he won’t be drafted, but will be signed. One NBA team will have to gamble.

Giannis looked eerily similar (very frail body early on and a high dribbler) to Kostas both in his game and body in that short clip they showed his rookie year where he had a ball stolen and then came down and blocked the layup. The big difference between these two, other than obvious talent, is that Giannis had/has that pressure to succeed with his entire family riding on his shoulders and that extra gear to be the best. He was not riding shotgun to any contract at all for that family upon coming here the way Kostas is getting to ride the crest of his brother's 100 mm.
Let's hope that Kostas can inherit half the work ethic and humility that Giannis has....
