The Toronto Raptors draft is coming ever closer after a consistent winner like Toronto was knocked out of the postseason picture by a very unlucky season. With their best draft pick in years, the Raptors might need to look overseas to find their next star, as Australia’s Josh Giddey continues to impress.
Giddey, a 6-8 18-year-old that has assumed a very important role with the Adelaide 36ers. With the height of a forward and passing skills of a diminutive guard, Giddey could easily end up as the top international prospect in this draft if he is able to beat out Turkish center Alperen Sengun and Real Madrid forward Usman Garuba.
