The Toronto Raptors have selected GRADEY DICK with the 13th overall pick in the 2023 NBA draft but it’s not the typical style of player that Masai Ujiri’s front office makes, so what is the real reason behind this pick?
Gradey Dick was a standout in his freshmen season with the Kansas Jayhawks and emerged easily as the best shooter in this class. The Raptors typically look to find diamond in the rough sort of players with the athletic two-way archetype but went away from that this year and addressed their need for shooting and depth.
Toronto went with Dick over the likes of Kobe Bufkin and Cam Whitmore who were still available, so was this the right move by the Raptors and is this a good pick?
Jacob Gramegna reveals everything you need to know about the player in today’s video on Amateur Hour Sports.

Welcome To Toronto, Gradey Dick! 🦖🦖🦖
Sorry but nothing you says come true..
Larry Bird in the making ..the man can shoot and he brings energy ..he will be a joy to watch even when his shots not falling he plays well
Bilal & Wallace were taken so I guess he was the best option. He's compared to like Huerter.
Can’t wait for the WE LOVE DICK signs
Kid is 19 as well he might just fill out in the next couple years and be an even stronger defender. Maybe guys like gtj or og can get him using his hands more who knows?
Gradey looks like Ric Flair had a grand-child that look like McDavid,JackHarlow
Next Larry Bird??
