Bruno Caboclo Discussion Thread

[SacKingZZZ]

Reading the Toronto board it sounds like Bruno has no BBIQ and completely spaces out at the NBA level. Makes sense with his limited experience. One poster said he passed the ball to the other team haha.

With that said he sounds perfect for the tank and to see if there is anything there!

Who knows maybe after 25 games the lights won't be as bright to him?

He's got the look of a stretch 4 who can spot from 3 and shoot a little off the dribble. Defensively his length creates issues for the players he's guarding as well as on help. I think he can contribute but asking him to come in as anything other than that would be a mistake. The Kings can use what he brings on paper and he's worth the look IMO. He's had 4 years of practice and G league experience, now maybe the Kings can get use out of another teams development system rather than the other way around.

He better play. He's the only player on the roster that can play that SF/PF role and the Kings have nothing to lose.

What minute range will stop you from freaking out is the real question haha

15? 20? 25?

But real talk, I'm with you in the sense that I'm eager to see him on the court out of curiosity more than anything. Hope comes later. I'm also aware that it may not work out and we may not get to see what we want.

He's in a different boat than players like Fox, Hield, Willie, Bogdan and maybe Skal because of the relative investment. Not to mention the fact that they are your best offensive players now and you are continuously sporting out the worst offensive team in the league. They need the reins now because much of what you saw on draft day are the exact reasons you don't do what the Kings attempted to do coming into the year. The point was proven yet again, now it's time to stop stepping on every rake in sight Sideshow Bob style.

I'm really sad to see Bruno gone. You guys have a player with a ton of potential. He's held back by his inconsistent motor, and sometime tentative nature on the court though. Confidence seems to be a big issue with him. It seems like he know's he can be good, but his confidence and skill haven't quite caught up. There are immaturity issues, and possibly a lack of professionalism, but seems like he works and wants to be good. He'd benefit the most from playing a lot of minutes at the NBA level. His potential is unlimited, but his mindset (and skill level) have been holding him back. Leaving the Raptors where he was probably protected quite a lot can be good for him in the long run. It will give him much needed perspective. I'm pulling for him. I just hope you guys play him.

He's really clutch too. Steps up in big games/big moments.

[Yeezus_]

As much as I wanted Bruno to succeed, it just wasn't going to happen on our Raptors team. We have too much depth and better prospects to develop. I'm glad he's going to a team thats rebuilding, so he atleast gets a chance to compete for NBA minutes.

I still think he can be a bench player in the NBA. Someone who can space the floor and hit 3's while playing solid defense. He needs more NBA experience.

Is Bruno not with the Kings yet?

Look for his debut after the all star break.

He is with the team. Last I heard they still had to do physicals and what not...

I'm sure someone has a better update than that...I just haven't searched.
