Locked On Raptors

The Toronto Raptors have long been pegged as having a clear type of prospect they dig in the NBA Draft, but do they still actually target the classic "Raptorsy" prospects they were once known for? In Episode 1871, Sean Woodley goes solo to dig into some NBA Draft-themed mailbag questions from the listeners! Off the top, Sean digs into whether the Raptors' recent selection of Gradey Dick and Ja'Kobe Walter mark a change of direction for the Raptors front office, and answers whether or not such a thing exists as a "Raptorsy" prospect anymore. Next, Sean gets into the last fourth ninth-overall picks -- Zach Edey, Taylor Hendricks, Jeremy Sochan and Davion Mitchell -- and discusses where those teams went wrong, if they did at all. Lastly, Sean dives into a question about the types of skills he tends to watch for in prospects that hint at their NBA translatability, including feel blended with athleticism, passing acumen, shot-making and multi-role projectability. Discord: https://discord.gg/nGTfauEjSupport Us By S
