Chad Ford's mock draft 2.0 has us drafting Tyler Ennis 19th:
General manager Masai Ujiri had hoped that by shipping off Andrea Bargnani and Rudy Gay for pennies on the dollar, the team would put itself in a position to get high enough in the draft to land Canadian Andrew Wiggins. Instead, the Raptors are currently the favorites to win the Atlantic Division. Even if the team trades away Kyle Lowry, I'm not sure the Raptors can really get bad enough to have a shot at Wiggins. The good news is that the Raptors also are on the prowl for a long-term answer at point guard and there's another Canadian, Ennis, who has been as good as any freshman in the country. Ennis is a steady floor leader who strikes a perfect balance between distributing and scoring. His assist-to-turnover ratio is outstanding for a freshman. He's not an elite athlete, but that's the only real knock against him right now.
