Mock Draft: Raptors Take NBA Ready Defensive Guard With 19th Pick

The Toronto Raptors could target Devin Carter with the No. 19 pick if the organization is looking to add an NBA-ready point guard to its ranks

The 6-foot-2 point guard just wrapped up his third year in college and looks like the typical high-floor, low-ceiling prospect. He’s not some unicorn three-point shooting do-it-all wing with sky-high potential, but what Carter is is reliable.

“Carter was immense as a breakout junior, marrying up an already-elite defensive package with an unstoppable offensive game and improved 3-point consistency,”Carter, the son of former NBA guard Anthony Carter, averaged 19.7 points, 8.7 rebounds, and 3.6 assists per game while shooting 37.7% from three-point range.

If the shot is real, Carter has a chance to be a very good pro. He’s a high-end defender and impactful rebounder who averaged nearly two steals and a block per game this year. He’s a tough point-of-attack defender and profiles as someone who should be able to hold his own against most other NBA guards.
