Should the Raptors target a stretch big at 19? | Kel'el Ware, Kyle Filipowski & DaRon Holmes II Scouting Reports

Locked On Raptors - Daily Podcast On The Toronto Raptors

In Episode 1644, Sean Woodley goes solo to talk about three potential stretch big man options for the Toronto Raptors, specifically when it comes to the 19th-overall pick in the upcoming NBA Draft: Indiana's Kel'el Ware, Duke's Kyle Filipowski and Dayton's DaRon Holmes II. Off the top, Sean digs into Ware, whose blend of size, athleticism, and rim protection make him an intriguing potential piece in the modern NBA -- especially if his three-point shooting is legit, and why despite some concerns about his defensive versatility and motor, he very well could be worth the risk at 19 as one of the best potential fits next to Scottie Barnes and Immanuel Quickley of any big in this draft. Next, Sean digs into Filipowski, whose polished offensive game is super interesting, especially if you view Filipowski as a jumbo playmaking four in the modern NBA. But is the fit right with the Raptors? Lastly, Sean has maybe a new favourite dude in this year's draft, and it's DaRon Holmes, the 6'9 big man out of Dayton who played largely as a dropping, rim protecting center for Dayton, but seems to have the speed, length and defensive chops to be more of a two-way wing in the NBA -- which would be pretty rad!
