Raps 2020 Picks (Prospect Watch, Update: Vecenie Mock Released)

[God Squad]

He will probably get picked much higher, but Jaden Mcdaniels would be an interesting developmental project for us.

Don't see him in our range. But he seems like the typical high upside, high reward type.

[God Squad]

Players I like in not in order (But have preferences)
Lewis (Not in range imo)
Terry
Nesmith
Both Bey's
Jay Scrubb
Jahmius Ramsey
Paul Reed
Bolmoro
Jalen Smith

IMO we can leave the draft with a solid player with potential. IMO we have options.

Agreed. I think this is one draft to not trade up. The talent late in the 1st seems just as good as those in the top 10

[Psubs]

I think Paul Reed should be the 1st pick for the Raptors. He can run the break as a PF. Unless a top 10 pick falls; though look at Skal Labisierre and Dejuan Blair. Hoping for an OG or Draymond.

Or Jalen Smith.

I'm actually of the opposite view, I think this might be the draft where it's cheap enough to trade up to get the guy you really want since there's so much parity. Also because I think the talent after pick 25 is a different tier than the one from 15-25.

My personal board for the Raptors who are either at pick 28 or within trade up range is about the same:

1) Tyrell Terry, PG
2) Aaron Nesmith, SG
3) Devin Vassell, SF
4) Robert Woodard II, SF
5) Tyler Bey, SF/PF
6) Kira Lewis, PG
7) Patrick Williams, SF
8) Saddiq Bey, SF
9) Paul Reed, PF
10) Xavier Tillman, PF/C
11) Precious Achiuwa, SF/PF
12) Jahmi'us Ramsey, SG
13) Jaden McDaniels, SF
14) Isaiah Joe, SG
15) Cassius Stanley, SF
16) Jalen Smith, PF
17) Devon Dotson, PG
18) Leandro Bolmaro, SG
19) Malachi Flynn, PG
20) Mamadi Diakite, PF/C

One player I have in the back of my mind when I think about Tyrell Terry is Tyler Harvey. I remember him coming out of Eastern Washington. He's not doing terribly in the G-League and is still only 26.

In the back of my mind when I think about Tyrell Terry is Davidson version of Stephen Curry.

If we end up with Reed or Smith ill be very excited. I really like Smith for some reason. Good chance Reed will be off-board.

I honestly think both Reed and Smith will be gone when we pick, but if not they'd be amazing choices.

Both are mocked all over the place. So maybe I'm just being a pessimist. But even if we miss out I like other options. Like I said in a previous post there are definitely intriguing prospects in our range.

Out of the two Smith and Reed who do you guys like more and thinks has the higher ceiling and chance to reach it?

I like Smith but I hear he's not a very good defender other than the blocks. He might get destroyed on switches.

Smith is the big I like in our range. Reed I think will be drafted by the time we pick. I'm also high on Jay Scrubb. But mostly for untapped potential, IMO him and Smith would be the Boom/bust picks.

I like the Nesmith love on this board. He can easily be a young Danny Green type for the Raptors. Tyrell Terry everyone knows about...

Yeah, I've been watching a lot of Nesmith lately. He would be a fantastic pick. Having said that, I really don't see a way he makes it to pick 28, same with Terry. They're going to be in the mix from 15 through 25 imo, same with Vassell who I think might actually be underrated here. He reminds me a bit of Middleton.

So unless we trade up we're looking at the next tier of guys like Woodward, Bey, Lewis, Ramsey, Smith, Reed, Tillman. I would add Williams to the list but he probably goes ahead of where I have him ranked for a team gambling on upside.

Ramsey!!! Weird with the low FT% but easier to fix than 3pt%. Maybe he's a young prospect version of Terence Davis!
