With the draft arriving in two weeks and the Raptors offseason hitting a bit of lull, we’ve been squarely in draft scouting mode here at Raptors HQ. Harsh and Mitch decided to crank open an email exchange and share some thoughts about what direction they see the Raptors going come late June.
Harsh Dave: So I have to ask you, what's your take on fit vs. best player available? Do you worry about any of that especially considering free agency is around the corner?
Mitch Robson: With the Raps picking out of the 23rd slot, I think you really need to look at the best players available, or even take a chance on a prospect that has slipped out of the late lottery for one reason or another if they still happened to be there.
