Everything Draft 2020

[Ebonhawke]

At least for the moment, the Raptors have both a first and second round pick in this year's draft.

Also a forum to talk about everything draft-related around the league

Masai in Europe scouting dudes. I don't really care about drafts though. Full of shit

[Ebonhawke]

Tankathon currently has the Raptors taking Paul Reed, a 6'9" junior forward from DePaul at #22, and Markus Howard a 5'11" senior PG from Marquette (shocking that the Raptors would be interested in a pint-sized PG)

SBNation has the Raptors taking Amar Sylla, a 6'9" 18-year old forward playing in Belgium who needs a lot of work offensively, but has drawn comparisons to Siakam for his agility and defensive prowess. Definitely seems like a Masai pick

NBADraft.net has the Raptors taking Tyrese Maxey, a freshman SG at Kentucky in Round 1, and Paul Ebua, a 6'7" forward playing in Italy

NBADraftroom.com has the Raptors taking N'Faly Dante, a 7'0 Center (7.5ft wingspan) at Oregon

Draftsite.com has the Raptors taking Zeke Nnaji, a 7'0 Center at Arizona

So.. all over the map

Grist for the mill. Top ten international prospects.

Masai got Pascal with a late 1st pick, same with OG. I wouldn't mind more Pascals and OGs on the team.

Wow 2001 prospect.. We're scouting 38 year old potential draft picks now? I know Marc was essential to winning a chip last year, but come on now.

He was *born* in 2001. Doesn't that make you feel old?

If the team gets too good, there goes all the drama.

Nah I got that but I'm not bothering researching it anymore that's all i'm saying

Fair enough. Pascal was definitely out of nowhere. But OG I had pegged for a while before the draft as a "pray he drops" target.

Tolzman, and Masai have done so well at drafting its hard to even bother trying to look at Draft Prospect IMO. In the beginning we kept doubting picks and they kept proving us wrong (Minus Bruno). Although i was on record of wanting Sabonis over Poetl with that 9th pick. Even though i guess it doesn't matter anymore we probably would have deatl Sabonis too or liked him enough to throw in pascal instead. Our draft team can do no wrong

Until I looked it up just now I’d forgotten that Hernandez was our first draft pick since OG. Signing Davis definitely filled that void of rookie signings lol

I’ll trust anyone that the team picks, assuming we keep our picks

We’re so well set up to get those rich-get-richer picks a la Spurs now. We’re not needy so can focus in on getting the right guy for what we’re trying to do throughout the program.

We don’t have a lot of roster room though, but presumably will in the summer of ‘21. So maybe draft and stash rears it’s head.

Bottomline, we’re in a good place.

We've got a lot of open spots on the roster starting this summer.
