He sure doesn't SHOOT like a stretch PF. Why does he get a pass for terrible shooting? Because he is European and we assume he can shoot? On top of this I just do not think his frame will allow him to be an effective NBA defender either. How will he ever get on an NBA court if he cannot even shoot?
If I am going to take a shot on guys who have played overseas and have struggled shooting I would MUCH rather go after RJ Hampton or Leandro Bolmaro. Hampton will find a place in the NBA (even if he struggles to shoot) because he will immediately have elite court speed and athleticism. Leandro has immediately ready NBA defense IMO. Much rather take a shot on those guys.
I could be 100% wrong on Pokusevski, but I personally would NOT draft him.

Totally agreed. I LOVE the Mavs having 18 and 31 in this draft. A couple solid shots to find solid role players IMO.
Lots of film on Pokusevski if you want to see for yourself:
