Toronto Raptors draft centre Christian Koloko 33rd overall

BROOKLYN, N.Y. - The Toronto Raptors have picked Christian Koloko in the NBA Draft.

The seven-foot-one centre is being drafted out of the University of Arizona.

Toronto had only one pick in this year’s draft.

Koloko, from Cameroon, was drafted by the Raptors as the third pick of the second round, 33rd overall.

Toronto acquired the pick on Feb. 10 in a trade with the San Antonio Spurs.

Drew Eubanks, Thaddeus Young, and a 2022 second-round draft pick, originally belonging to the Detroit Pistons, were sent to Toronto in exchange for Goran Dragic and a protected 2022 first-round draft pick.
