Raptors Make SMART Move… This is Big for Toronto Prospect…

Toronto Raptors have been making some sneaky moves involving Grady dick which could pay off in dividend for Grady going forward in the future so we’re going to break down what the Toronto Raptors are currently doing how they’re managing their young lottery pick that they just drafted this year and why it’s

A huge positive for his career and the trajectory of him getting back into this lineup and having a serious impact on this team because frankly a team built around Scotty who has improved as a three-point shooter but especially now RJ Barrett Pascal cakam if he stays

Yakob purle if he’s still on the roster I mean having a three-point floor spacer like Grady dick is projected to be will be huge for this Toronto Raptor Squad but before we dive into that folks again thank you guys for hitting that sub button like wild again still over half

Of our viewers are not subscribed to the channel so if you’re part of the wave that hasn’t hit that sub button and want to stay up to date on all of this Toronto Raptors coverage we’re delivering daily more than Daily Now feels like three vids four vids a day

Now here at this point definitely subscribe to the Raptors digest it means the world to us but let’s dive into what’s going on with Grady dick because obviously there was a lot of hype for the Raptor draft pick coming into this season and he is completely falling off

The map falling out of the rotation to the point now especially with all the trades and everything that’s going on no one’s talking about Grady dick what’s going on with this man because he is a key piece of the future Messi’s talked about it darkos talked about it he’s a

Piece that shouldn’t be LOF in the Lost in the shuffle just at 19 20 years old he is a player that has a lot of Promise in the NBA even though he hasn’t been that great to start off his NBA career so what’s going on with Grady dick well

Basically darkar rakovich came out and recently discussed how uh you know grd dick is in the middle of a twoe special program working on his body weights conditioning on the court and things along those lines and wants to be his Focus now and he’ll have an upcoming g-league stint to implement it before

Hopefully getting back into the NBA rotation so basically the Toronto Raptors have firstly moved him out of the rotation that’s the first move that has sort of happened over the past couple weeks and now he’s getting B sent stint with the Raptors 905 so he’s being sent down there basically Darko has gone

On to say that I think it’s very healthy for him right now he’s definitely going to be back with us and he’s going to be a rotation player he’s the future of this organization and he needs to check a couple of boxes before we really unleash him on the floor so again

There’s no if s her buts about it Grady dick has not been looking that confident has not been just had that feel we saw from the highlights in college that jumper even though it looks smooth the form hasn’t changed and he’s letting it Fly pretty fast his release hasn’t been

You know marel fol or anything along those lines Grady dick is a player that still has that gorgeous looking for you know the elite numbers in college in terms of hoing up that three-point shot that’s all still there but the percentages right now in the NBA just

Haven’t been that great so this man needs a bit of confidence now he’s had already some stints in the G league so why is this different why are we making a whole video on this here right now because Darko is talking about hey you have this two week stretch to really set

Your body in order know new year new me no gry dick for 2024 as a lot of people I’m sure now are sort of getting back into shape or gry you know elevating his shape elevating his form to be at that MBA level they’re giving him that sort

Of focus that commitment on his body on his physique on his sort of training and then putting him down in the g-league to say hey once you’re done with this you are going to be in our rotation you can read it directly from dark O say he is

Going to be a rotation piece for us you know he is the second sentence there with us and he is going to be a rotation player it’s the future of this organization he needs to check a couple boxes so they’re saying hey you get these couple things done you get this

Little shake out to sort of go down and Grady dick is going to be a player that’s sort of involved with this team because frankly we need it to happen we need Grady dick to be that floor spacer we couldn’t where the Raptors are currently at you don’t you don’t have

That luxury of sort of wasting first round picks and people people sort of been looking to gray dick right now who’s had bad in small stint so you don’t want to judge his box score too too much in the actual NBA but even in the G League it hasn’t been going on

That great you know in seven games 14 points per game not horrible but again 32% from the field and then the 28% from behind the three-point line just not that awesome not that awesome stats from Grady dick from a lottery pick particularly in the g- league you want

Him to sort of be dominating down there so gr dicks kind of got this twoe window to really prep things and uh you know all that sort of stuff so that’s sort of the main moves that the Toronto Raptors are making but the thing that I find most interesting about this the most

Interesting part in regards this whole gry dick situation is what this could set up for the future for the Toronto Raptors because that two- we window the torona Raptors are currently in the midst again they have that road trip they have a month sort of ahead of this

Year’s trade deadline the Raptors just made a blockbuster trade where more guards sort of came into the picture Gary Trent Jr has been struggling as of late Pascal siakam’s been a part of a thousand different trade rumors over the past you know since OG and anobi has

Really been dealt so could there be an opportunity can M you Jerry saying hey Grady we need you training we need you confident you’re not going to get a lot of run with the big squad over the next couple weeks as we still have gr uh Gary

Trent Jr we still have all these guys sort of in your way in the rotation but this team is going to look a heck of a lot different by the time you’re done this g-league stint by the time you’re sort of done this whole sort of uh you

Know training regiment and we want you ready to go more confident than you’ve been looking currently at the right right now at this current stint you know in his sort of Raptor’s career we need you ready to rock because the Raptors have no intentions in sort of uh you

Know tanking now or bottoming out or anything along those lines but they have the also intentions of developing their young players and they drafted Grady dick Messi said in those press conferences he’s a guy that can sort of come in right now and fill a desperate

Need for the Toronto Raptors in terms of improving the three-point shooting I mean we looked at the Cleveland Cavaliers and we saw how the you know the Raptors were kind of dominant that game we played better we did execute a defensively attacked the rim did everything right in that game but the

Three-point shot was the great equalizer you know with Herold coming off the bench max stru these types of guys that the Raptors have a gry dick being able to sort of be a spark plug firing up threes you know for this Raptor team I mean that would be huge for the scraptor

Squad and winning and things along those lines and it will be in the future but he’s not a guy that’s sort of specifically with a skill set a guy that you’re sort of going out there develop and you know see what sort of happens he’s a guy that can fit in nicely when

He’s confident when he’s going with a Scotty with an RJ with a pascal whoever the heck we have on this team so I’m pretty intrigued by all that and you know the quotes directly from Darko you know he assigned to the G league for the

Six game trip and then when he goes on his next assignment for the 905 it’s going to be an opportunity for him with everything that he’s worked on the last two weeks kind of like put into a game and set up and play so I mean Grady dick

Has this big opportunity now with the g-league and one big thing especially with Shooters is knowing that you’re going to get an opportunity knowing that there’s a plan in place for you because it’s really tough when you’re not mentally locked in you’re on the bench you know you’re not really going to play

To get thrown into the fire and be expected to knock down shots when you’re cold when you’re not warm when you’re not mentally there cuz shooting a lot of it is mental anyone that’s played basketball before knows I know we like to think of NBA players it’s kind of

Robots but I mean they’re humans too especially Grady dick who’s like extremely young he’s two three years younger than me that’s crazy so I mean he’s going to be coming in at the NBA level and just saying hey I need my opportunities I need this so having a

Coach one instill confidence in him which I’m happy with Darko rakovich is doing two give him a timeline in terms of knowing what’s going to be expected of him the opportunities the roles and stuff there I think this is the right sort of approach to handle Grady dick

And I think it’s some smart moves by the Toronto Raptors so let me know what you guys think about the whole Toronto Raptor approach to handling Grady dick we also have a another guy that sort of been mentioned as of late as well in jonte Porter who we signed on a two-way

Deal after getting rid of Ron Harper Jr after he was uh after he dealt with an injury again a 611 power forward that can space the floor dealt with some injuries over his basketball career but it’s 24 years old you knocks down the three is a you know Hustler I’d like to

See him get an opportunity too over this sort of stretch of game so I wanted to throw him out there at the end of this video but I don’t know let me know what you guys think the Tron Raptor should be handling this gry dick situation you

Guys are the best make it this far again subscribe to the channel if you guys haven’t already I’m signing out cheers

  1. Find that kind of peculiar. What kind of necessary skills can he learn in 2 weeks times that make him that much different than 2 weeks ago?

  2. Two weeks is a short time to achieve any significant strength gain…kind of a silly pronouncement…but hope he gets on track eventually…more strength is always good….
    Gooooooo Grady, Goooooooo Raptors ❤❤❤❤

  3. Can’t wait for these two to work together: “Quickley Dick shoots!!…. OH so close In and out”

  4. what drugs are these nba players taking if they expect him to make any body progress in two weeks lmao. in all seriousness though, concentrating on body balance and overall physique will help im alot. you can see the same with scottie.

  5. The form and mechanics on his shot are actually really bad. Im shocked he had such good percentages in college. He needs to overhaul his mechanics
