2024 Draft Profile - Adem Bona

Kevin O'Connor - The Ringer - June 17th: "Big-bodied defender with the hands and feet to thrive in any pick-and-roll scheme. He sets rock-solid screens and rolls hard to the basket. Active help defender who explodes like a rocket for emphatic highlight-reel blocks."

NBA Draft Room - June 16th: "A quick, explosive athlete with great open court speed, tons of strength and above the rim ability. A masterful defender and improving offensive player. Can play a clear role from day 1."

Jonathan Wasserman - Bleacher Report - May 30th: "Adem Bona measured a 7'4" wingspan, tied for the highest standing vertical and then showcased that length and athleticism on big finishes and blocks during scrimmages. The extra scoring this year at UCLA won't do much for his stock. But he still has the tools, motor, feet and leaping ability to continue making plays around the rim at both ends."

Kevin O'Connor - The Ringer - March 18th: "A tireless player with the qualities to be an excellent rotation big."

Jonathan Wasserman - Bleacher Report - March 6th: "The scouting report hasn’t changed much on Adem Bona, an exciting finisher, capable low-post option, rangy defender/shot-blocker and foul-prone big man. While he isn’t sharp enough with the ball for NBA teams to feed in the half court, he does have the right tools, athleticism and motor for an energizer role."
