Charles in Brampton:
Hey steve, what do you think about the raptors future? Who do you think they should target as a centre, considering Jonas will be there in a year?
Steve Kyler:
They already targeted their center... Solomon Alabi... he killed it in their min-camp in June and he really started to come around.
I talked with some people at the Raptors camp, and they said hands down Solomon was the best player there.
Dwyane Casey really likes him and he will get a real chance. Not saying they won't look to bring in bigs, but they think they have a possible starter in Solo and with Bargs and Ed Davis able to play the 5 spot, they may not have the gap you think they do.
Also keep in mind Solo was drafted after coming off knee surgery, he really didn't get healed until mid-season and Jay Triano just wouldn't play him -- Casey seems like he's open to playing him.
