Would be a solid B+ to A- draft by the raptors IMO. Kyshawn George at 19 is a steal, and so is Tyler Smith at 31, though Tyler Smith being available at 31 is highly unlikely.

George at 19 is a reach
Very unathletic and on the older side as far as wing prospects go
Would definitely prefer Missi with the 19th pick (not taking him while still available on the board would almost be malpractice), but Smith falling to 31 would be amazing for us.
Wouldn’t hate it, but not exactly the most exciting pick at 19.
Smith at 31 feels like a steal, though.
Smith is not sliding second round man
I’m not going to pretend for a second I have any idea how the 19th pick in any draft, let alone this one, will play out
Zero chance Smith drops that low, especially with some surprising guys returning to college around that range.
We really need depth and a big wing like George after trading OG, Pascal and Precious. Really intrigued by George’s ability to create and score, plus a decent handle. Not sure about his defence though, which is a massive priority.
I like george but I dont think smith makes it to our second pick
If Smith fell to 31 then that would be an amazing draft for us. I highly doubt that happens
Kyshawn ain’t it. Dudes like Kevin Knox if this version of Kevin Knox sucked. And this version of Kevin Knox already sucks, if that makes sense…
With how this mock draft went, I’d give the Raptors an A-.
I would take Carrington over George at 19. At 31 however I don’t think there’s anyone I would argue taking Smith over is a huge problem. If we assume the players on the board at 19 and 31 are who they are in this mock I’d be pretty happy. If it’s Carrington at 19 and Smith at 31 this is an A.
Smith, for all his flaws (every player in this draft seems to have some glaring issues), is still a young, 6’10 forward with pretty strong 3 point shooting. I’d be surprised if he’s available at 31.
Would hope they sign a centre. Kel’el Ware or Filipowski with the 1st pick or if they take a wing/guard early take someone like Adem Bona with the 2nd rounder.
