Valanciunas update: Sources say buyout agreement close, however, buyout won't allow Valanciunas to play in NBA next season.If Valanciunas can't play in NBA next year, he'll drop. Cavs won't take him at 4. Still I doubt he slips past the Rockets at 14.

Hypothetically, if there was no next season, whoever picks him up late lotto or mid first round will get quite the steal.
This would also be a good time to pick up a late lotto or mid first round pick to get him if he was there and if a pick could be had.

His defense is heaps better than Bargnani, and he has huge arms.Read my blog, The Picket Fence. Guaranteed to make you think or your money back!

phili pepa in toronto:
im still not sold on raptors selecting jonas. How would yu rate tha pick and what do tha raptors really expect from him?
Joel Brigham:
They should expect him to be the perennial All-Star that they build around for the next ten years. He's going to be fantastic. Best pick the Raptors could've made there, and I don't think fans are going to be disappointed at all. Give it just a little bit of time, but within three years you're going to see serious returns on that particular investment. He'll be the best player from this 2011 draft.

Big praise for Jonas. Granted it is one person's opinion and earlier in the chat he said DD would average 12-15ppg for the majority of his career.
