Raps sign David Roddy to Exhibit 10 Deal

[RaptorPride]

David Roddy was a great do-everything type at Colorado State and then I thought the Grizzlies drafted a bit higher than I thought he would go and we couldn't get him, btu I really liked the idea of him on Toronto. Last year, he bounced around from the Hawks to 76ers to the Rockets. It isn't a great sign and kind of indicates he is lacking something. The 30% from three is bad because he is pretty low volume (only 36% from corner threes). That said, he is a THT type of player who can get to the rim well but the finishing is not great.

The most important factor I think its his defense. I am just not sure someone that big can guard players his size. Putting him on Cs and PFs he is undersized but he can really compete but gives up height. On the perimeter he is open to blow-bys. Not sure he gets more than a camp invite, but he might be better than Lawson or Castleton so you never know. He does have more than 2800 mins playing in the NBA so there is some sample.

Seeing Roddy bully Boucher was one thing, but seeing him bully Zion was quite another!

He has that football player build. He should have been a fullback with his strength and agility. Toronto has a few of these football body types lately (CMB, Roddy, Martin). Sign me up for these dogs.

We need Kenny Lofton and we are set.

I have never been a Castleton fan......and we don't really need him. I would rather give Chomche 3rd/4th string minutes.

I remember liking him during the pre draft a few yrs ago during the scouting process we do, big wing small big tweener type. He's nice tho, he's got game. He's what we wanted Mogbo to be last year, but now I think we are using Mogbo as a small 5 as we should. Roddy & Lawson are 4A players, too good for Gleague / no1 wants to give them a real shot based on not enough pedigree

Both would do well in Europe, and both could still have a role in the league. It's a tough one to determine which "4A" players end up being rostered, especially with younger players/rookies being worse players, but more controllable and more "projectable".

Frederick VanVleet if he was a few inches taller and weighed 70 more lbs

He’s the Rhoden 905 replacement.

Seems like either Lawson or Castleton will be cut to make room for Roddy on the training camp roster, which isn't surprising because both of them are borderline locks to be cut by the end of training camp anyway to duck the roster under the 1st apron.

The heavy implication here from Blake Murphy considering his earlier post from July 10, is that Castleton will eventually be cut to make room on the training camp roster to sign Roddy.

Toronto did Castleton right giving him so many SL minutes. He will catch on somewhere - probably Poland.
