Jalen Hood-Schifino is one skill away from being a perfect fit with the Toronto Raptors at 13

In Episode 1420, Sean Woodley goes solo to profile Indiana point guard prospect Jalen Hood-Schifino and what makes him an almost perfect with the Toronto Raptors theory, save for one very notable weakness in his game. Off the top, Sean discusses why Hood-Schifino would make sense for the Raptors, from his excellent pick-and-roll operation to his stout defense as an over-sized guard at the point of attack, to a really interesting mid-range pull up game. But, does his suspect three-point shooting, especially off the catch, make him too tricky a fit to really work on this Raptors roster? Next, Sean digs into what the scouts are saying about the strengths and areas for growth in his game, and the concerning underlying numbers and mechanical concerns that could prevent him from becoming a player who can operate effectively without the ball in his hands. Lastly, Sean updates his personal big board for the Raptors at no. 13, and why Hood-Schifino doesn’t quite break into the top-three among Sean’s most ideal realistic targets for Toronto at 13.
