Quick note this lunch-hour as the Toronto Raptors have announced their 2014 NBA Summer League roster for this year.
We'll be doing a much longer post breaking out a number of the attendees for Toronto's Vegas entry, but for now, here's a look at who is expected to be suiting up for the Dinos via the Raptors' press release:

Off the top, seeing the Raptors' newest acquisitions Caboclo, Daniels and Nogueira on the roster is key, and other interesting names include Canadian point guard prospect Myck Kabongo, recent draft prospects Doron Lamb, Malcolm Lee, Scott Machado and Hassan Whiteside, and a member of last year's Raptors club, Dwight Buycks.
Interestingly, the list isn't exactly chalk-filled with prospects who worked out for the team in preparation for this year's draft, so my guess is once we delve into these names, we'll find a link to the Raptors' management crew that's existed for some time.
