at 23 Raptors took OG Anunoby who if he was able to workout after a season torn ACL he suffered in a win over Penn ST in January, made him unable to work out but the 19th year old defensive wiz has the potential at 6"7 230 to guard SG-PF especially with their being more agile and less bulky PF @ C's. He is raw offensively and his shooting motion needs work on the mechanics of better timing and not rushing shots. But defensively he is ready especially with a 7"2 wing span, At the present moment from the clips I see similarities to current SF/PF Demar Carroll, both inconsistent Offensively but bring it everything on the D end, What I see better in OG is willingness to go to the basket as he before getting hurt runs the court well similar to Siakam who wold snak up court and was a constant favorite for Lowry to throw the long high pass for a easy lay up or dunk, he is able to run like how he was he will a good Slasher that should be a a guy that should some easy looks for alley oops and quick cut passes to the basket for quick dunks. This move a also makes it a make it or break year for Bruno who will have to fend off OG to make the team. It will be interesting if the team moves JV is moved for a vet PG or a sharpshooter SG, PG only if Lowry leaves but I think they would roll with the trio of Joseph Wright and Van Fleet, the rumours are Ibaka will resign for 20 million a year and be moved to C and the team gets a new PF or re-sign Patterson and he and Siakam the D League Finals MVP can hold down the 4.
