Dusan Neskovic - Dartmouth Transfer - Commit

[SFspidur]

Only fair that Dusan gets his own thread along with Manon and Beagle.

Grad transfer wing out of Dartmouth. 6'8", 205. Born in Serbia, raised in Bosnia and Herzegovina, played a postgrad year at Hotchkiss.

Played in 23 of Dartmouth's 27 games, starting 16. Was the leading scorer on a bad Dartmouth squad this year at 16 ppg, only one in double figures. Shot 43% from the field and 36% from three, rising to 45% and 43% in Ivy play. Led the team with 135 attempts from distance. Only averaged 4 boards a game, and had 25 assists to 54 turnovers.

Thanks SF.

As noted in the other thread, I did see him play at Hotchkiss. He was very polished and skilled then. Seems like a great fit on the offensive side for us. I think a stretch 4 for us, so could fit nicely next to Walz and Beagle.

23 points @ Duke, 24 @SLU, 14 @Vandy, 22 at Albany.

Let’s go get him!

Here's some condensed game footage against Duke, Vanderbilt. Seems to have a good first step and solid moves in the low post, maybe a little slow to finish if he has to take his time to get open, got stuffed a couple times. I realize that was against Duke players though. Very good at cutting and getting open and finishing. Definitely had the attention of the Duke defense and still couldn't stop him at times. I am far from an elite scouter but definitely someone that would help on the offense.

I'm in on this guy. A poor man's Burton maybe? Still would need a scoring guard though, because we saw what happened when Burton was our leading scorer as a forward. It doesn't really jive with the way we want to play.

Still would need a scoring guard though.

Manon is a scoring guard.

 

[Eight Legger]

Yeah, would be nice to get them both if we can.

25 assists to 54 turnovers

Hope we Gipe him, but he's got some work to do on TO/assist ratio if he wants to stay on Tarrant Court under Mooney.

Not if he can play and makes us better. Tyler had 105 assists and 185 turnovers his 4 years here and I wanted him on the court as much as possible. Guys their size won't get a lot of assists so I wouldn't pay much attention to the assist/turnover ratio.

 

[spider23]

Can't find much else. Anyone see where he is taking any other visits? I see UCLA, Mason, and Loyola have shown interest.

This would be a nice pick up.

Nothing concrete, but I can see that the Marshall HC follows him on twitter, so I can assume theres some strong interest there. Gipe also follows him, FWIW. Also lots of assistants from other solid programs - Marquette, Seton Hall, San Francisco, Iona, High Point, Murray State, etc.

Finally some good news today - Trilly Donovan posted a list of all the transfer predictions he's made in his discord server (it's behind a paywall, so info is not available on Twitter unless he posts something).

Buried in this sea of correct predicitons - he's logged a prediction for us to land Neskovic. Hopefully this can get wrapped up soon!

would love this. Trilly's got quite the batting average.
I almost wrote Dusan off since he visited a month ago with no commitment.

 

[fan2011]

He had a top 5 usage rate in the country last season. Pretty crazy.

 

[spider23]

This would be good news. Sounds like a pretty darn consistent 3 point shooter over his career, has some very nice offensive skill. Think an athletic, defensive minded wing would fit nicely next to him (cough cough Dji Bailey).

How can this guy be so connected, essentially, to every single program out there??

 

[GKiller]

Let's close this one out. Get Giper up in the bullpen.

he's got moles in every teams' social media graphics department.
for $100 each they feed him the name with 24 hours notice.

It's actually really interesting. There's been a few articles written about him, trying to figure out who he is, etc. He's been a CBB staff member in the past and is clearly connected in the industry. Definitely on the younger side. He's charging $5/month and claims to have over 5,000 members on his discord, so that's some serious revenue he's bringing in.

He's always breaking college hoops news. But what everyone wants to know: Who is he?

The man behind the scoop-heavy social media account Trilly Donovan spills some of his secrets — except his identity.

Told look for good news.

 

[spider23]

That would be a very nice pick up. Hope we can wrap it up.

 

[MDspider8]

BOOOOOM! Got him.

 

[spider23]

Excellent. Two very nice pick ups so far in the portal. Welcome aboard Dusan!

Welcome to the web!

 

[Eight Legger]

Let's go!

 

[UR80sfan]

2nd very strong pick up. We are going to have a terrific front court. We continue to have players visit that are not mentioned on this board. Very excited about next year.

 

[SFspidur]

Seriously, what the heck is wrong with the color on our recent visit photos?

 

[VT4700]

Yes!!!!!! What a great get!!!!!

 

[VT4700]

Let's add a good sized G who can shoot the 3 and we should be in good shape roster wise.

 

[gcarter52]

That’s what I’m talking about! Welcome aboard Dusan🌟🌟🌟

Not a fan of the morgue filter?

 

[brooklyn brownstone]

Also, great pick up. Need points, he’s a scorer, perfect fit.

 

[GKiller]

Got to like this addition. It will be interesting to see how we roll out the frontcourt & potentially play a little bigger, if Beagle is getting time at the “4”. We could actually attack the glass for O rebounds if we wanted.

 

[gcarter52]

Not a fan of the morgue filter?

I guess you have to find something to complain about smh!

 

[spiderhoops]

In Giper we trust. Great pickup.

 

[97spiderfan]

Great pick-up. Really like our front court now with Neskovic, Beagle, and Walz. Way to reload with great talent up front.

Probably our biggest need now is a 3. Another shooting guard would be great as well.

 

[spiderman]

I guess you have to find something to complain about smh!

come on, g. this is an easy one. Beagle's pic was blue too. so easy to correct. kids who commit look forward to the social media release, and we're posting pics like they're in the cast of Avatar.

 

[Eight Legger]

The photo thing is obviously a filter that the athletic department intended to use. Not sure why, I agree it doesn't look awesome, but it it was intentional not accidental.
