According to US media RG reporter Grant Afseth, the Toronto Raptors have tried out earlier this week for two backcourt players who are about to appear in this year's NBA draft, namely Michigan State freshman Jase Richardson and French player Nolan Traore from Ligue 1 team Saint-Quentin.
Richardson was born in October 2005 and is 19 years old. According to data from the previous joint trial physical test, Richardson's bare feet are 184.2cm, his wingspan is 198.1cm, his standing height is 250.2cm, and his weight is 80.9kg. In the NCAA game this season, Richardson made a total of 36 appearances at the University of Michigan, with 15 starts, averaging 25.3 minutes per game, averaging 12.1 points, 3.3 rebounds (0.6 frontcourt rebounds), 1.9 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.3 blocks, 0.8 turnovers and 1.5 fouls, shooting percentage of 49.3% (4/8.1), 3-point shooting percentage of 41.2% (1.3/3.2), and 83.6% (2.8/3.4).
Traure was born in May 2006 and is 19 years old. According to data from the previous joint trial training physical test, Traure's bare feet are 190.5cm, his wingspan is 203.2cm, his standing height is 257.8cm, and his weight is 83.4kg. In the European arena this season, Traore played 44 times in total on behalf of Saint-Quentin, of which 34 were starting, with averaging 22.7 minutes per game, with averaging 12.2 points, 1.9 (0.4 frontcourt rebounds), 4.7 assists and 0.7 steals, 2.5 turnovers and 2.3 fouls, shooting percentage of 41% (4.3/10/5), three-point shooting percentage of 31.4% (1/2/4.0), and free throw shooting percentage of 71.1% (2.4/3.4).
Richardson is a backcourt player with good scoring skills. He has rich offensive methods and comprehensive scoring skills. His stability in outside shooting is also very outstanding. It is not easy for him to play such data when he doesn't make many shots. However, Richardson is seriously insufficient in size. He will encounter huge trouble on the defensive end as a No. 2 player, and his performance in passing and organizing offense is also worrying. Considering the serious shrinkage of his data in the joint trial physical test session, this has also led to obvious fluctuations in his draft market.
Traore also has good scoring ability. He can use breakthroughs to complete scoring, and he also has certain passing and organizational skills. His performance on the defensive end is still sloppy. It’s just that Traore has problems with shooting choices, his ability to shoot from outside needs to be further improved, and he is also over-stick to the ball. Traore may also have some trouble with faster players on the defensive end. However, Traore's data during the joint trial physical test session were eye-catching, and his figure was quite good among No. 1 players.
Judging from the current situation, Richardson's draft market should be in the middle and back of the first round, and it seems that his draft market is still declining, while Traore's draft market should be in the middle and back of the first round. The Raptors held the No. 9 pick in the first round and the No. 39 pick in the second round in this year's NBA Draft. Traore looks like they are targeting their first-round pick. If Richardson's draft continues to decline, he may become a potential candidate for the Raptors' second-round pick.
