    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>However that doesn’t mean that there weren’t some standout performances. After talking with the Raptors’ Director of Player Personnel Jim Kelly and several others, and having seen a nice chunk of the action ourselves, here are our top 5 from the camp.

    1. Rod Benson. Benson was the name that came up the most in discussions about “stand-outs.” He’s a great rebounder, has a knack for the intangibles of the game, and as Jim Kelly mentioned in the post-workout scrum with us, his mid-range game was a lot better than advertised. So do the Raps have a Vegas spot saved for him? Unfortunately not as the Phoenix Suns have already scooped him up. Benson had a great interview with us after the camp and conveyed that if he didn’t crack an NBA roster this year, he already had some great opportunities lined up overseas.

    Boom Tho impressed! I guess his time in the D-League did him some good. I'm excited to see if he makes the Suns team - that'd be great to see him play there.

    I also hope Hassan and Watkins make some team - that would be pretty sweet.

    Is Baston involved in the trade? Is Shawne Williams coming to Toronto? Lots of unanswered questions that greatly affect our depth.

    As for Too Much Rod Benson sorry if I don't get my whiskers pricked over Kris Humphries potential back-up.
