Jakis Posted November 1, 2005 Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 Raptors 7th overall pick had a great preseason.Charlie Villanueva, Toronto RaptorsRaptors general manager Rob Babcock shocked observers by taking Villanueva with the No. 7 overall pick last June, but as it turns out, Villanueva played better than any rookie in the league this preseason. His 16.9 points per game led all newcomers by a margin of more than 4.5 points. It even topped his 13.6 scoring average at UConn last season, as Villanueva is apparently a better fit for the pro game. Largely confined to the paint in Storrs, Villanueva managed just 12 three-point attempts as a Husky sophomore, converting half of them; with the Raptors in just seven preseason contests, he nailed 10-of-18 (.556).http://www.nba.com/features/preseason_star_051031.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
