The more subtle part of the evening – the 2nd round.
The Toronto Raptors drafted Quincy Acy with the 37th pick and Tomislav Zubcic using the 56th pick.
Surprisingly, Toronto did not make deal any of these draft picks tonight, and for good reason. Quincy Acy is a very versatile big man, kind of like Reggie Evans. Personally, he looks like a player like Reggie, person like James Harden and personality of Jerome Williams aka the Junk Yard Dog. He’s pretty athletic too, and has a great high motor. Toronto fans absolutely love hustle players, and Quincy will definitely not disappoint.
Take a look at Quincy’s (probably the) biggest highlight during his time in college:
Tomislav Zubcic on the other hand reminds me of a very familiar player, Andrea Bargnani. According to NBA.com and other sources, Tomislav is a great shooter, athletic, and quite quick for his size. Obviously, like Bargnani, with big men he is definitely not as strong, not that great of a rebounder, defensively minded player, but he is young and with the right patience he will be able to grow and develop into potentially a great player in the league. He might not come out straight from Europe, but if he does, we’ll have another big who can stretch the floor.
