GANTER: Koloko just might be forcing the issue, and that's a good thing for the Raptors Via Mike_Ganter

Which is all a long way of saying that Koloko had some catching up to do when he arrived in the United States at the age of 16.

Raptors assistant general manager and vice-president of player personnel Dan Tolzman is of that belief. “It’s a good sign when you have your main guys wanting to play with your rookie, that they see something and he does the little things that eventually as he improves is going to make him a good player,” Tolzman said.““I like him,” VanVleet said Sunday after the preseason game. “Again, he really knows how to play. He’s good on his feet. He’s got a little touch down there.

Koloko’s playing time during Friday’s open scrimmage before a full house at Victoria’s Save on-Foods Centre was cut a little short when he took an inadvertent elbow in the nose from teammate Precious Achiuwa and had to leave the floor. “I need to get stronger,” he said. “I need to bulk up. I know my body. I’m going to continue to get stronger. But whenever it comes, it comes. I’ve been playing like this my whole life. I don’t think it’s going to be an issue for me to play like this.”
