Raptors' Christian Koloko: Elite defensive showing
Koloko averaged 7.8 points, 4.2 rebounds, 1.8 steals, 2.2 blocks and 1.0 assists in 22.1 minutes throughout five Summer League games.
While Koloko's offensive numbers are not eye-popping, his defensive ones certainly are. The 2022 No. 33 pick is in the perfect situation in Toronto. The Raptors have a history of developing second-round and undrafted players, especially ones with defensive versatility. Koloko will compete with Chris Boucher, who just re-signed on a three-year, $35 million deal this offseason, for frontcourt minutes off the bench.

Raptors' Christian Koloko: Taken No. 33 by Toronto
Koloko was selected by the Raptors with the 33rd overall pick in the 2022 NBA Draft.
Toronto has chosen to use its only pick in this year's draft on Koloko, who's a talented center from Kansas. Koloko aided the Jayhawks to the national title this past season by averaging 12.6 points and 7.3 rebounds while shooting 63.5 percent from the floor. The Cameroonian is also a fantastic rim-protector who swatted away 2.8 shot attempts per matchup in 2021-22.
