19. Toronto Raptors - Allen Graves
- 2025-26 stats (Santa Clara): 11.8 ppg and 6.5 rpg
Graves is a freshman from outside the high-major ranks but a coveted prospect nonetheless. Toronto is fairly covered on the wings and at forward, and the biggest needs, center and ball-handler, weren’t addressed. It’s an okay pick, but they could’ve filled other needs. They’ll hope Graves ceiling overcomes this.Â

20. San Antonio Spurs (via Atlanta) - Jayden Quaintance

21. Memphis Grizzlies (via Detroit) - Karim Lopez
- 2025-26 stats (New Zealand NBL): 11.9 ppg and 6.1 rpg
The first-ever Mexican-born first-round pick is a skilled forward who can handle the ball and score at the basket. He’s one of the youngest players in the draft and has potential, but Memphis traded out of 16 and didn’t land a guard, just another forward for a team that has Cedric Coward and now Boozer. Unless he breaks out, it’s a rough pick.
Grade: D+
