The Toronto Raptors selected Collin Murray-Bowles No.9 overall tonight out of South Carolina, which shocked fans after many thought they would take Khaman Maluach. Seconds after his name was called, fans were shocked again when Murray-Boyles was seen on camera shaking his head while dropping an f-bomb:
It immediately spread throughout the internet that the rookie must have been upset to land in Toronto. As someone who is hip with the youths, and knows that an f-bomb can mean anything from anger to sadness to pure joy, I wasn’t too worried about it. In every other interview immediately following his draft, Murray-Bowles seemed happy and excited to be drafted to Toronto.
