Bruno Caboclo, the Raptors 20th overall selection in
Thursdays NBA Draft, arrived in Toronto Friday evening. A
wide-eyed 18-year-old visiting North America for only the
second time in his young life, Caboclo immediately
noticed the "big tower" his new home is best known for.
Then he got to work. Caboclo, described by those who know
him as a "gym rat," was amazed to find out that hell have
access to the Raptors practice facility at any time, day
or night, just one of the many perks that comes with
being drafted into the NBA. At 11:00 PM, the Brazilian
forward was taking jump shots on his new teams practice
court, on the third level of the Air Canada Centre. "I
need to get a feeling for the gym and I need to get the
rust off," he told Eduardo Resende, his long-time friend,
translator and closest advisor. A couple hours later he
was in bed. It had been a long day. About 24-hours
earlier, on the night of the draft, Caboclo and Resende
were in the backseat of a cab, en route from the airport
to their hotel in New York City and following along with
the picks on Twitter. They expected to be in their rooms
by the time the commissioner called Caboclos name,
sometime in the second round, or so they thought. Thats
when they got the news. Refreshing the app on his phone,
Caboclo learned he had been drafted, that his dream had
come true. If you thought you were surprised by the
pick… "The taxi driver didnt understand what went on,"
Resende joked. "We were screaming back there. It was
crazy." "He was jumping out of the roof. He was very
excited. Its a dream come true. For a young Brazilian
player that could only see those things on TV and then
all of sudden hes a part of it." Caboclo tried to call
his family back in Brazil but no one answered, they were
asleep. He fielded calls for hours and finally heard from
Masai Ujiri, the man who had just shocked the basketball
world by making the pick, at 2:00 AM as the two were
ordering some late-night food at a New York pizzeria. At
4:00 AM they were finally able to get some sleep.
Thursday night was an emotional one for all 60 prospects
fortunate enough to have their name called - dreams
realized, lives changed - but for Caboclo the feeling was
a little different. It had to be. A native of Sao Paulo,
Brazil, Caboclo - the youngest of three siblings - grew
up in a rough environment. "He comes from a difficult
family financially," Resende said. "He supports his
family." Without cable in his house Caboclo was unable to
watch NBA basketball until recently, but hes been playing
the game since he was 13-years-old, dunking since he was
14. When did he know he wanted to play in the NBA?
"Always," he said, after Resende relayed the question in
his native Portuguese. The Raptors were intrigued since
the moment they saw the 6-foot-9 Brazilian. With a couple
of Torontos scouts watching, Caboclo won the most
valuable player award at the 2013 Basketball Without
Borders Americas. At the request of his staff, Ujiri went
to go see the young man play in Brazil. He would later
make two more trips, bringing with him Jeff Weltman,
Toronto executive VP of basketball operations, and other
members of the organization. They werent the only team
wise to Caboclo, though they were one of a small handful.
No more than five teams knew about him, according to a
club source. "Youre going to get some scouts fired for
this," one Raptors staff member told a team scout,
jokingly, while watching Caboclo in amazement. If he
realizes his potential in the NBA, despite flying under
most of the leagues radar, it could change the way many
teams approach their scouting process. Ujiri and company
kept a low profile on these trips, for obvious reasons.
Evven Caboclo had no idea he was being watched, playing
sparingly for Pinheiros in Sao Paulo at the time.

Jersey. Ujiri happened to be in attendance when one
of Caboclos teammates got hurt, creating more playing
time for the young forward. He brought back some film of
that game to review with his staff… on his cell phone.
Even with limited live action data to work with, Ujiri
quickly fell in love with Caboclos upside. As he worked
out in Toronto just before being introduced to the local
media for the first time Saturday morning, it wasnt hard
to see why. With a 7-foot-6 wingspan, he barely has to
leave his feet to extend above the rim. Hes wiry, can
handle the ball and his shooting mechanics are
"excellent", according to a front office source who has
seen him play. At one point during the workout, Caboclo
was asked to dribble past a coach and dunk the ball.
Instead, he passed that coach the ball. His English, like
the rest of his game, is a work in progress but hes
absorbing everything like a sponge. "Soon he wont need me
here anymore," joked Resende, who has known Caboclo since
he was a kid, working with him for the last two years.
"His improvements have come very fast," he continued. "He
is nowhere near the Bruno who was MVP at Basketball
Without Borders. He is way past that." "Hes a little shy
until he gets used to whats going on, and then hes very
open," Ujiri echoed. "Hes a gym rat, and hes competitive.
If he doesnt do a drill well, he will want to finish it.
Thats him. Hes a great kid. Loves basketball. He wants to
be in the gym every second, which is what you want in an
18-year-old." "Its a gamble," Ujiri acknowledged.
Although Caboclo has the tools to succeed in the NBA, it
will take time. Listed at 205 pounds, the young man will
need to add muscle and get comfortable with the language
on top of the work hell need to put in to grow his game
in the league. As for the negative reaction to his
unexpected pick, Ujiri doesnt care. "Honestly, I dont do
it for reactions of anybody," said the Raptors general
manager. He may well be "two years away from being two
years away", as Fran Fraschilla so eloquently put it on
the ESPN broadcast, he may be "five years away from being
five years away", as Ujiri joked on Saturday, but the
Raptors feel strongly about their pick and will patiently
ride it out for as long as it takes. Caboclos drive,
passion and work ethic should justify that patience. "He
is very aware that hes coming to a league thats pretty
tough and hes only 18 so theyre probably right about two
years from being two years or whatever," Resende said on
behalf of Caboclo. "But he said hes a hard worker and hes
going to cut that [timeline] down and contribute before
everybody [thinks]" The work begins immediately. Caboclo
will travel to Los Angeles on Sunday to meet and workout
with some of the teams players and coaches. The Raptors
plan to get him on a weight training program right away,
while he puts in time with an English tutor, something
the team did with Jonas Valanciunas after he came over
from Lithuania. He wont play for Brazil this year -
though he hopes to represent his country in the 2016 Rio
Olympics - as he has committed fully to the Raptors. Hell
participate in the teams Summer League entry in Las Vegas
next month and then prepare for his rookie season. Ujiri
anticipates Caboclo will spend at least a portion of his
first year bouncing up and down from the Development
League (Note: the Raptors have yet to announce their D-
League affiliate for next season). "Hes going to start
learning," Ujiri said. "Starting today. Hes a basketball
junkie. Those guys usually figure out a way."
