8. Terrence Ross | 6-7 | 197 | SG/SF | Washington | 21
The Raptors look at this as their second lottery pick, with last year's pick Jonas Valanciunas set to join them. With him in the fold, Toronto felt like they could pass on the tumbling Andre Drummond and take one of the draft's most athletic wingmen in Terrence Ross. He was trapped on a dysfunctional Washington team last year, so many folks didn't get a chance to see just how good Ross really is. He has remarkably deep range on his jumper and he loves to get out and run on the break. Think of him as a high-character, smarter, defensive-minded, doesn't-fade-away-on-every-jumper-for-no-reason JR Smith. Strong pick. - Nick Prevenas

I know people may be upset with the pick, saying that BC should have traded down to get this guy and another asset. But keep in mind that taking on an "asset" just because you can is not prudent either. I am surprised with the pick, but I like the player.
