1. The Toronto Raptors need shooters and guards. With their FRP they should be targeting Christian Andersen and Momcilovic with another later pick (that they would buy or trade for)
2. I was very surprised to read yesterday that John Hollinger, a profoundly knowledgeable guy, did not really know how much some of these underclassmen could get in the NIL portal. This draft of yours ignores that problem. This is the elephant in the room. As draft and college prospect experts your team needs to suss out a pay scale and player rankings in the NIL portal. There are always caveats, like the money is only for one year and a year at an elite college is better than a year in the G League. Still, as a member of the unwashed, know-nothing, armchair expert class, I need some orientation.
Hey Gerry, pointed out in the introduction of this article that plenty could return. NIL + next year's class depth make it very possible a lot of players return (something we've talked about all year). Appreciate you checking out the piece.
I’m sorry, I neglected to mention that you had mentioned the problem at the start of the article. What I am hoping for is some work from your team which demystifies that market. It sounds to me like that will be difficult. The best of luck.

Thank-you for all your work.
