Sergio Llull is our 2009, 34th pick we got from Denver. He currently plays point guard for Real Madrid. He is 6'3 200 pounds. He is 22 and has played pro ball since the 05-06 season. In 2004 when he played in the FIBA Europe under 18 championship he won a gold. He joined Real Madrid 2007 and in 2009 the gave him a two year extension. This year they gave him a four year extension, so getting him over soon may be costly.
Even though he is not playing against NBA talent, he is and has been playing with grown men. What I got from watching him on tape is that he can see the floor well and is an excellent passer. That is important for a point guard, secondly he has a good shooting form, which means he is able to hit threes. He is a good on the ball defender and he plays the passing lane well, which leads to him to him getting steals. Llull is a big physical guard who is athlethic and will drive it in and dunk on you. He is quick and can push the ball to score or find the open man.

Sergio is important because this is AB's contract year. . Since he is a starter he will already want more money then Lowry. If Aaron continues to turn the ball over, and continues to be inconsistent and wants more then he is worth then Llull may be an option as a backup for Lowry.
