Career: Buducnost Podgorica (Montenegro-Superleague 2004-09), Real Madrid (Spain-ACB, 2009-10), Gran Canaria (Spain-ACB, 2010), Lottomatica Roma (Italy-Lega, 2010-11)
One of the most exciting young forwards in Europe, 23-year-old Vladimir Dasic is now delivering on the immense promise he showed as a young player after a strong season in both Euroleague and domestically in Italy. Once looking like he would primarily play either the 4 or 5 spot, Dasic has evolved into more of a forward in the three role who likes to spend more time on the wings than under the hoop. With such great size he is a real problem for opposing offensive players and with his relatively impressive quickness for his height he is an effective defender. While Dasic still has some development to complete in certain areas, such as his ball handling and improving the consistency of his outside shot, he has plenty of skills and is really difficult to stop in transition or when he attacks aggressively off a short dribble from the high post. Athletic and a great rebounder, it's not surprising Dasic was named an Italian League All Star earlier this year and the future belongs to him in this Montenegro team.
