SportsLine's Analysis
A steadily improving Ukrainian who at last found consistency during this past season, he'd be a nice piece for the Suns to add given that he can shoot it a little, moves fluidly and offers excellent size. The Ukrainian center enjoyed a breakout season for the same French club team that delivered Tony Parker. As a result he's attracted the attention of several teams who have gone to scout him overseas. - Tony Mejia
Scouting Report
Pecherov became known during the 2004 Reebok Eurocamp, establishing himself among the best players there. He enhanced his stock by leading the Ukraine to the gold medal at the Global Games, averaging 24 points and 10 rebounds per game. Pecherov's stock, though, has fallen a bit since his good run in 2004. However, he still has solid skills that could get him selected late in the first round. He has averaged nine points and almost five rebounds per game in just under 17 minutes last season, including a 23-point, 12-rebound performance. Pecherov does many things adequately, but nothing in his game stands out. He is a solid athlete and possesses decent range on his jumper for a power forward. He lacks ideal strength to play the four, needing to add about 20 to 30 pounds to fill out his frame. Even if drafted, Pecherov could stand to play another year or two in Europe to refine his game. He will be only 21 on draft night, giving teams a few years to let him blossom overseas. If he can regain the form he showed a few years ago, Pecherov could wind up a solid rotation player for many years to come. (AP)
