Raptors sign Bruno Fernando; is he the favourite to be Jakob Poeltl's backup this year?
Manage episode 433136133 series 1710280
In Episode 1690, Sean Woodley goes solo to assess the state of the Toronto Raptors' centre position and who stands the best chance of being the backup to Jakob Poeltl in 2024-25, with recent signing Bruno Fernando likely figuring heavily into that competition. Off the top, Sean digs into the Raptors' extreme level of dependence on Poeltl, his undeniable positive impact when he's on the floor, and why it may be hard for the Raptors to survive the minutes he doesn't play this season -- let alone a sustained injury absence. Next, Sean talks about recent signing Bruno Fernando, his limited offensive game, the interesting work he's done as a defender and driver of strong defensive rebounding numbers, and why he is probably the best candidate to be Poeltl's backup this season if he makes the team out of camp, which he probably should. Lastly, Sean runs through the reasons why Kelly Olynyk should be almost exclusively playing minutes at the four for the Raptors, Jonathan Mogbo's potential as a small-ball, creative five, Scottie Barnes moonlighting as a centre, and the possibility of a Christian Koloko reunion helping to potentially fill in the backup big minutes this season.
