here's the impression of what Lithuania expect from Val. he might be not that good passer, but he showed he can. he might be not that good shooter, but again he showed he can. i bet, we have a better version of Sabonis with Val :P
i doubt that val could be better then sabonis in his european days pre injury, in this shape Sabonis was one of the greatest center(maybe not so great like russel and chamberlain, but he could face shaq in my eyes).
For val i am a doubter, i think he could be a solid till good NBA player but i don't think he got a franchise player.
