PG • 6’1, 179 lbs; 8th year, Brazil
UNDERDOG
NBA ROLE: CRAFTY PLAYMAKER
A crafty playmaker by way of Brazil, Raul’s a rare commodity: young decision-maker who takes care of the ball – does not make many silly mistakes, probes around well before releasing passes; looks to set up teammates first before establishing himself; decent shooter (finished #3 in 3P% as a rook in 2016), though doesn't launch at a high volume; pesky defensive presence, competes hard on ball – candidate to pick unsuspecting guards’ pockets; needs to add more muscle; not much of a scorer – would benefit from a few more go-to floaters and short Js; signed w/ Cavs (2022) – fits in as am important backup for Darius Garland
