Nick Nurse wants to find the best way to use Dalano Banton

Dalano Banton at the microphone. On the occasion of the passage of Raptors in Edmonton, at the heart of their Canadian tour, the native of Toronto (one of only two to have the nationality of the country with Khem Birch) took the stage to thank the local fans. His compatriot and selection partner, Nickeil Alexander-Walker, did the same for the Jazz, easily repelled by the Raps.

Once the match started, the 22-year-old was able to show some great things. Author of several elegant finishes in the circle, the leader of more than 2 meters (announced at 2m06, according to Basketball-Reference) compiled 9 points (4/6 on shots), 3 rebounds and 2 steals in just 11 minutes.

A convincing first outing in the eyes of his teammate, Fred VanVleet. According to the incumbent, younger players tend to slow down their pace of play and step up smarter, gaining experience.

You can see it with him. He chooses his positions, he knows where to attack, he gets stronger and he is able to finish in the circle. Last year, he arrived at an incredible pace with his 2m06. Reading the game, knowing the system and leading the team a bit, I think that’s where he’s probably improved the most and will continue to improve », judge the 28-year-old veteran.

He does great things with the ball. »

Fred VanVleet, who is coming off three straight seasons averaging 35 minutes or more, is likely to ease off a bit this season. His replacements, Malachi Flynn and Dalano Banton, could thus benefit from it, unless Scottie Barnes also recovers minutes in the lead.

Rookie, the Canadian enjoyed an average of 11 minutes of play, for 3.2 points per game. But his coach, Nick Nurseis formal.

There are so many cool things he does on both sides of the pitch, the key for us is finding the best way to use him. It’s about making him a more complete offensive player than just a ball carrier who launches the attack. It’s my aim. He does great things with the ball. He generates play. But he has other qualities that we must take advantage of. It will help to broaden this role a bit. »

The Raptors would be wrong to deprive themselves of such a tall player with such mobility, even if profiles of this kind are not lacking in the team (Pascal Siakam, Scottie Barnes, OG Anunoby, Otto Porter Jr, Juancho Hernangomez, etc.). In any case, the 46th choice of the Draft 2021 is ready.

I will continue to do what is asked of me, whatever is necessary. Play as hard as I can, run my lanes, play our defensive principles, be where I can and keep playing my game. »
