This may be a bit high for Kanter, who didn't take a dribble during the Kentucky Wildcat's 2010-2011 campaign, but he fits a need for the Raptors.
They have Andrea Bargnani, who's listed as a center, but plays more like a shooting forward. Although Kanter can reportedly step out and knock down the three-pointer, he's more polished inside and adds more length to the Raptors front court.
ESPN's NBA Draft expert Chad Ford notes the following as Kanter's positives:
Tough, physical player. Very skilled, can do just about everything. Loves to draw contact in the paint. Crafty finisher at the basket. Can handle and pass. Has shooting range out to the three point line.
Seems like your typical big man from Europe who can essentially do it all. It's still worries me a bit that he's been away from the game for and entire year, although he's spent the whole year working out with trainers at Kentucky
Unfortunately for Toronto, there's not a true center they can take with the No. 3 overall pick, but Kanter can team with Bargnani and Calderon and bring the shooting, uptempo style of European play to the NBA.
(It looks as though Harrison Barnes is going to stay at UNC, otherwise he'd be the pick)
