The Toronto Raptors selected Indiana forward OG Anunoby with the No. 23 overall pick of the 2017 NBA draft on Thursday night.
Ford's Big Board ranking -- No. 13: "Anunoby is an elite athlete with an NBA body, plus a 7-foot-2 wingspan. He plays hard on both ends of the floor and can defend four positions. He's a good shooter with range, has a good feel for the game and works hard. He's the prototypical 3-and-D prospect." More (Insider)
Kevin Pelton's stats and scouting ranking -- No. 7: "Anunoby is the only prospect in this year's draft projected for better than 2.0 steals per 100 plays and 2.0 blocks per 100 opponent 2-point attempts. Historically, several wings who met that criteria have outperformed their draft slot." More (Insider)
