Slam Dunk Central Reporter Stephen Rhodes’ 2008 NBA Mock Draft

Posted by Stephen Rhodes under Slam Dunk NBA Draft Central 

??????????????????????? Toronto Raptors

Yesterday I covered the Philadelphia 76ers’ draft needs and who I projected them to draft with their first-round pick.? Today, I cover the Toronto Raptors’ draft needs and will also predict who I think they will draft with their first-round pick.

Toronto Raptors

Draft Position - #17

Needs - Shooting guard, center.? Toronto’s woefully lacking at shooting guard as they have Carlos Delfino and swingman Anthony Parker.? Other than that, they’re lacking.? Meanwhile at center, they have Rasho Nesterovic, Primoz Brezec and Andrea Bargnani (who is really more a power forward than a center).? But since scoring wasn’t a priority at center for the Raptors, shooting guard seems to be the more pressing need here.

Toronto Raptors select: Nicolas Batum, SG/SF, France

Tomorrow: Washington Wizards?
