  1. [Exhibit 10 deal for Rhoden, per a source. So camp invite, compete for 15th spot or a 2-way, get a bonus if you’re cut and go to Raptors 905.](https://x.com/blakemurphyodc/status/1825559197121159332?s=46&t=sbk6yuyliVaFRQjBUBJCMQ)

    [Raptors camp roster is now full at 21 bodies. 14 guaranteed, 3 2-ways, 3 Exhibit 10s, and Fernando’s non-guaranteed. Easy to change those 2way/Ex10/non-guar if needed, but that’s the camp roster for right now. Plenty of space below tax for in-season moves if needed.](https://x.com/blakemurphyodc/status/1825559689842798627?s=46&t=sbk6yuyliVaFRQjBUBJCMQ)

    The note about “easy to change 2way/Ex10/non-guar” is important if Koloko gets cleared and we want to bring him back.

  3. Likely Carton or Carlson get cut, slim possibility Temple and he stays in as a coach?

    Koloko and Fernando could both get minutes, were slim up front.

  4. NBADRAFT.NET Analysis

    NBA Comparison: Aaron Wiggins

    Strengths: A long, physical, aggressive 2-guard with the athleticism to carve out a role in the NBA if he can polish some of the rough edges … Drastically improved as a shooter in the last two years, which makes him a potential 3-and-D rotational player at the next level … Doubled his free-throw attempts per game from his sophomore season and raised his percentage from 62% to 80% over his last two seasons giving his outside shooting nice promise … Solid athlete who plays above the rim and defends 1-3 well … Fearless and passionate leader … Can score at all three levels with a nice mid-range jumper and self-creation skills … Moves fluidly on the perimeter while attacking the basket … Can attack the basket to either side while finishing efficiently around the rim with good body control and athleticism … Moves well laterally on the perimeter defensively and does a good job keeping his man in front of him

    Weaknesses: Shot selection isn’t always the greatest … Needs to improve his explosiveness with his first step as he will rarely blow by a defender off the catch … Shooting motion needs refinement and has a slow release … Defensive awareness and efficiency should be better considering his physical gifts … Can get too aggressive on defense trying to jump passing lanes, which leads to easy baskets and fouls … Turns the ball over too often … A/TO dipped from 1.9/1.9 as a junior to 1.2/1.9 as a senior … Inefficient scorer outside of the pain with a 39% FG and 33% 3-PT as a senior. Needs to knock down shots more consistently, which is entirely possible with less scoring pressure and more open looks that need to be generated by a lead guard/playmaker … As an older prospect, lacks some of the upside of other players available …

    Notes: Measured 6’4.6 barefoot, 6’6 in shoes, 200.6 lbs, 8’8 standing reach, and 6’11 wingspan at the NBA G League camp … Received an invite to the 2022 NBA Draft Combine, following a solid performance at the G League Camp … Four-year player at Seton Hall earning All-Big East First Team in his final season … Averaged double-digits in his career with the Pirates … Two NCAA Tournament appearances, which would have been three if 2020 NCAA Tournament wasn’t cancelled … Withdrew from athletic testing at the NBA Combine … Measured: 6’4.5” barefoot, 6’6.0” in shoes, 8’8.0” standing reach, 200.6 lbs, 6’11.0” wingspan at the 2022 NBA G-League Elite Camp …

  5. His shot looks good and he is touted as a potential 3 and d player capable of guarding 1-3.

    I am happy we are bringing a lot of guys in to battle during training camp.

    Let’s find us some rough gems and see how they develop in Darko’s system.
