A bit late to the party, but yeah initially pretty disappointed they didn't go with Suggs as he seemed a natural fit for the post-Lowry Raptors. But going back to something I mentioned earlier, everyone seems to recognize the Raptors as being an elite team for player development, so if ever there was a great landing spot for a guy with great potential, but needing some work to get there, it would be here. Not that I should compare Barnes with Kawhi, but in Kawhi's draft he was viewed as one of the worst shooters in the draft. Then the Spurs put in the work to fix his shot, and the rest is history. Good news is Raps got enough depth to not have to rush Barnes into anything. Hopefully they can get those mechanics right.
