The Toronto Raptors have a lot riding on the NBA Draft Lottery on May 12th. They currently hold the sixth pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, but the lottery will almost certainly change that. The Raptors could leap up as high as No. 1, but they also have about a 52 percent chance of losing the pick entirely and sending it to the San Antonio Spurs. When you add in the possibility of trading up or down the draft board, it's vital that the Raptors have a fully built draft board for every pick from first to 58th. Their board will differ from other teams as they build around Scottie Barnes, but they also must avoid the trap of passing on talented players because of positional overlap with non-core players. Let's look at the Raptors' Top 10 Big Board at this point in the draft cycle, starting with a player who could be an elite long-term partner to Barnes in Toronto's frontcourt.
