After Caboclo was named MVP of the NBA's Basketball Without Borders camp at Buenos Aires in 2013, they heard of NBA scouts making their way to watch him. He remembers the first time an NBA scout, representing the Indiana Pacers, asked him to shoot 3-pointers from the NBA distance. "I am scared," Caboclo says. "I shoot. Airball." He curses at the memory, with a knowing grin; his Raptors teammates have enjoyed teaching Caboclo how to curse in English. "Movements I never see in my life," he says of the plays that the Pacers' scout asked him to make. "I am not doing good."

Such a different person when he's comfortable speaking in his own language (and understandably so), you can see the confidence and his sense of humor.

He plans to bring the championship ring in Djibouti.
