oh for sure... its a bit of a risk, but he's a kind of 'buy low' player that could pay off...

of course BT thought that about Lazar too (a 1st rounder that needed a change of scenery)...

i think the risk is a late 1st, which in theory, is also a bit of a crapshoot. The benefit is that you hope he can add to your line up this playoff run rather than waiting a year or two for that 1st to pan out
