This is considered baiting. This is your only warning.

EDIT: Wait...how many warnings do you already have against your record? Wow.

sule wrote:Well, according to NBAdraft.net

- Excellent wingspan (7’2.5”) for his size
- Defensive potential is his calling card
- Length could allow him to develop into a small-ball big in the future
- No real defined role offensively yet
- Doesn't always exhibit an ideal level of intensity
- Needs to work on his ability to create shots
- Is not a strong ball handler, dribbles high and away from body
- Does not create his own offense
- Won’t be an instant facilitator at the next level
- Has trouble recognizing the open player as a playmaker
- While he has the tools to become a quality defender, was slow at times reacting on defense
- Late-bloomer so his basketball IQ needs some catching up


Sounds like he was born to be a Raptor.


No basketball IQ...yep that sounds like a Raptor :lol:

but for real good pick at 23

when they talk about culture change they mean drafting and signing players to hide lowry/dd on defense. except unlike most of our previous transactions he wont play

lol what do they do with bruno the waste youth

I like the pick for this reason, upside is huge, but man he does not fit the Raps timeline at all. I guess maybe he takes a PJ Tucker-like role to begin.

Can't wait for him and Bruno to be the next KD and Giannis
