Rondae Hollis-Jefferson – should he be Toronto Raptors’ draft pick?

The Toronto Raptors possess the #20 selection in the NBA Draft of June 25. Being helpful sorts here at Rapture Central, we’ve been offering GM Masai Ujiri snapshots of potential draftees, with a concentration on power forwards. Several members of Rapture Nation have been pushing for a swingman, specifically Rondae Hollis-Jefferson, who’s leaving the University of Arizona Wildcats after 2 seasons. Let’s have a gander.

Rondae is 20 years old, stands 6’7″, and weighs nearly 220 lbs., though his broad shoulders hint at more weight in the future should he pump some iron. This guy is an athlete; he can run and jump with impressive ease, and has the quick first step needed to beat his defender off the dribble.
