Robinson III looks like a stronger Terrence Ross, or a more athletic Danny Green.

With Masai repeating that he doesn't care if he drafts a position of strength on our current roster I think we're taking a PG or SG ie/ Ennis, Stauskas or Payton

It would suck if we were planing on taking one of those other guys at 20 and Inglis at 37 and then of course Inglis is gone by 37 and we still haven't addressed our biggest weakness . Guys that can guard LJ or other big SF don't come around too often .

Yeah, but he also emphasized growth which would suggest drafting guys like Payton, Grant, Capela, Young or Inglis as opposed to more finished products like Ennis, Stauskas, Early, Payne, Napier, etc.

The guy is really talented.
I'd be thrilled if the Raptors drafted him, but I don't think he'll last till 20.
It wouldn't surprise me to see him drafted in the top 10.

Imagine a lineup of Lowry/Ross/Inglis/Capela/Valanciunas. Monster defensive team.

I think I'd lean towards Capela.



Capela and it's not even close. He'll be one of the steals of the draft... basically a Noah Vonleh equivalent but a little thinner.

James Young should be in the second round. Dinwiddie is a better prospect by far.

I want them both tbh. :banghead:

This is one draft where no one can really predict who we are taking... Masai has been very clear about one thing.

Pick 20 is going to be BPA. Which means all we can do is watch the draft and see who falls to us.

Sure there is a large group of guys that are likely suspects but there are a lot of guys being forecast in front of our pick that could fall.. Going to be a fascinating draft night once all the wheeling and dealing starts...
