    The Raptors, according to sources, have strong interest in Bismack Biyombo as an athletic defensive presence to pair with Andrea Bargnani.

    Biyombo began his North American workouts on Monday, with the Raptors visiting him in New York. Biyombo is scheduled to be in a big workout for the Pistons on Tuesday and then meet with the Knicks back in New York on Wednesday.

    Stay far away. Ppl are quick to draw the Ibaka comparisons, but they forget that he could very likely be Saer Sene.

    not with the 5th pick, he'd be a good pickup with a late lotto pick this draft. if the raps draft him though they'd have a lot of potential in their front court with players like Ed Davis, Amir Johnson, and Biyombo.
