Sound Sleepers-These underrated gems could make some G.M.'s look brilliant
SOUND SLEEPERS

These underrated gems could make some G.M.'s look brilliant


  Petteri Koponen PG 6'4" Honka Espoo Playboys ( Finland )  He's so good that if he were coming out of high school in America, he'd be on the cover of SI.  I think he's going to be a seriously good NBA player.  He has size, he can shoot and he can fly.  He reminds me of Danny Ainge-fearless and hard nosed.
