He looks pretty impressive out there. Small-ball 5 potential.

He might have been drafted in the second round, but undrafted energy players are a dime a dozen. I think a lot of teams are making a mistake by passing on stone, he had a bad year at Maryland, but he can punish people in the post, he might turn into a Zach Randolph.-"You can’t run from me. I mean, my heart don’t bleed Kool-Aid."

But D-League salaries are non-existent, tough to see that happening unless it was an agreed upon deal for taking him earlier than projected.

Teams were talking about Pascal Siakam as a kind of Tristan Thompson-lite in weeks leading up to the draft. Energetic. Mobile.Tough as nails

never heard of him. went and checked some vids. he is all year in the d-league. welcome to the raptors pascal.
dan, is agreeing to go to the d for a year and not sign a contract circumvention? does the player reserve the right to re-enter the draft after a year if they aren't signed to a contract?

I guess he hasn't played for that long, cause he started late, but still has a good feel for the game. Gives me hope that there is some room to grow as well even though he is pretty old.
EDIT: Looked at the Tristan Thompson, Siakam comp and they have incredibly similar measurements from the combine.Last edited by DogeLover1234; Fri Jun 24, 2016, 03:24 AM.

You look at what made our bigs good this year in the playoffs and it was attacking the boards with energy and good defense primarily in the pick and roll. You look at Pascal, and his biggest strengths are his length, athleticism, and motor, which bodes really well for him playing in the NBA this year. I think he could be a Kenneth Faried type, but actually play good defense. I can buy into his jumper as well. He does need to clean up a fair amount of things defensively and needs to get stronger, but not hard for me to see a role for him right away.

if his defense ends up being elite at the position quickly, he could get floor time. i doubt it though. he looks like he has a good set of hands, his jumper looks ok, just doesn't go in much. needs reps. much happier with this guy over skalLast edited by Miekenstien; Fri Jun 24, 2016, 08:26 AM.
