To be fair there would’ve been a bigger turn out for Suggs.
But I agree with everyone. Scotties personality is going to blow up in Toronto. He’ll definitely be the vocal leader and the face of the team for a while. Especially if he becomes an Alll Star

Yeah its wild but honestly I understand where their fears were coming from but Im happy that people are at least giving this kid a chance.
Also I think a lot of Barnes demeanor since the draft and his genuine embracing of the city & team would melt even the coldest of hearts.

We will see some FVV/Barnes/OG/Pascal/random center line-ups during the season.

As soon as this guy gets a big steal and dunk he’s going to be a fan favourite. I’m really rooting for him because he has such a magnetic personality.

Now that we drafted Barnes over Suggs, I hope Nurse lets Scottie play through his mistakes. Barnes said he prefers to play the point guard position, and with Lowry all but gone, I hope the team gives him a chance at PG. Suggs would have made this team better immediately. Let Scottie play major minutes in the backcourt. I hope they do not have a tight leash on him.

52 seconds into this video
When Scottie came in to workout for us his wingspan was measured at somewhere between 7'3.5"-7'4". Hand width 27cm (10.63").
Yeah that's what I was referencing. Difference between the combine results and this one.
But if he has a 7'4" wingspan![]()
Masai slipped the measurements guy at the combine a quick G to rig it
smart.
