Leonardo wasn’t with the team during most of the preparations so he struggled a little to find the right role in the beginning of the tournament but  as the tournament advanced he played better and better. Athletic big man, hard to stop in pick & rolls or on post ups when he decided to use his mobility and strength. Sometimes he looked tired/lazy and wasn’t running the floor or going for a rebound but otherwise proved himself as the best/most talented center in Podgorica. Room to improve in decision making and in face up game from mid-post. The talent is there and it is up to him if he will use all his tools the best way possible and make an NBA career.
