Vtb-league.com singles out five players born in 1993 or younger that are in contention for the Young Player of the Year. Enisey guard Denis Zakharov is one of five contenders.
In this season he played 21 game in VTB United League. His average stats: 11 points, 1.2 rebounds, 2 assists, and an 8.5 efficiency rating per game.
Official website of VTB United League writes: “He’s known for his offense: dangerous driving to the basket and on the perimeter. Zakharov is also terrific in transition and very talented in the 1-on-1 game. Perhaps his best attribute, however, is his killer instinct. Already this season, he’s knocked down several game-winning shots”.
