2024 Draft Profile - Melvin Ajinca

NBA Draft Room - August 19: "A high energy forward who is streaky from downtown."

Sam Vecenie - The Athletic - August 7th: "Everything about his game screams NBA. He’s a smooth lefty shooter with real size and athleticism, mixed with high-end aggressiveness when it comes to finding his own shot. He also plays really hard defensively and could slide onto the wing in the NBA if he can improve his passing and decision-making skill over the next year."

Kevin O'Connor - The Ringer - August 2nd: "Ajinca is a long-armed lefty shotmaker from France who teases a high ceiling well above his safe 3-and-D floor. Though he isn’t an amazing ball handler, he flashes isolation scoring potential with stepback 3s and pull-up midrange jumpers."

Jonathan Wasserman - Bleacher Report - July 19th: "At 6'8", he shot 48.9 percent on 6.4 three-point attempts per game, showcasing the type of positional size and shot-making that's sure to draw NBA attention in Pro A this season. Though not the shiftiest or most creative, confident shooting and physical driving and defense help Ajinca stand out as a clear NBA prospect."
