Player Preview 2017-18: OG Anunoby, Toronto's 'swiss army knife' on defense

The Toronto Raptors may have caught a break when they landed OG Anunoby with the 23rd overall pick in this past summer's NBA draft. The Jefferson City, Mo., native was a projected lottery pick until tearing his ACL last January. In fact, Anunoby believes he could've been a top five pick if it wasn't for his setback and it's easy to see why.

Standing six-foot-eight and armed with a seven-foot-two wingspan, Anunoby has the unique combination of lateral quickness and length to immediately become a disruptive force on the defensive end alone.
