Didn’t you hear? He’s the Brazilian Kevin Durant who’s two years away from being two years away, and then we’ll see.
As a Raptors fan, I am absolutely shocked. Obviously we’re all gonna search all over the internet for this guy, but seriously, at 20?

And the raptors are the biggest loser of the draft, Fran frascilla said he is the Brazilian kd but he is 4 years away from coming to the league. Complete waste of pick for a playoff team who was looking to bolster roster

  I had him 59th to Toronto. Im surprised they chose him ahead of Ingles. They must really like him. Huge bang or bust pick.

I didn’t have him in my mock but…. He reportedly has a 7’6" wingspan and is a solid spot up shooter and good athlete, that is where the "Brazilian Kevin Durant" comes from. I did some research on him a few months ago and completely forgot about him. Fran is right… two years away from being two years away.

He’s been mentioned here before. Go to the Chu Chu M thread. That being said I didn’t have him being drafted though Fran said he had early second round hype. 20 seems high but I’ve always been with if you like a guy take him. If you fail then you suffer the consequences. Good news is you can get a contributor at 37. So not all is lost in Toronto.

Even if Ujiri found a nice player in him I believe he could have drafted Bruno Caboclo with the 37 pick, or even 59.

I believe in Ujiri he hasnt given me reason to not believe in him. With that being said I think Ujiri thought Bruno would not be available at 37. Therefore he selected him at 20.
They have to really develop this kid but I dont hate the pick. Could be this years "Brazilian Freak" he just wasnt exposed to you guys yet.

I first heard of him on a post I made about ape index. From the clips I saw when I first looked him up, he looked extremely raw. Even more than giannis who was a reach at 15 in a bad draft. I didn’t even know that he was in the draft and I feel if the raptors did not select him, he most likely would have gone undrafted

I’m brazilian and he’s our best prospect of this generation, and it’s NOT a big man (Nene, Splitter, Varejão, Lucas Nogueira) hahahaha

Here’s an article talking about him! But it’s in portuguese. Later maybe I try to translate for you guys.

As story goes, Raps promised to take Brazilian project Bruno Caboclo with 37 pick and that’s why he skipped all workouts. Grabbed him at 20 instead.

Smith has been reporting Raps ball since they began as a franchise so he is reputable or he would have been replaced.
