- In this week’s episode of Open Gym, newest Toronto Raptor Armoni Brooks, chronicles his journey to the NBA. From growing up and playing collegiately in Texas, to not hearing his name called on draft day, to finally reaching his ultimate goal, Brooks opens up about the difficulties in fighting for a spot on an NBA roster. Essentially auditioning for a job every time he steps on the floor, Brooks makes his Raptors debut on the first day of his 10-day contract and eventually turns it into a 2 year deal. And buoyed by Pascal Siakam’s second career triple double, the team wraps up a 4-0 homestand with a win over the Minnesota Timberwolves.
Armoni is such a great pick-up. His shooting stroke is so smooth and his defense is underrated. Raps got themselves a good one.
Great guy and a great addition to the team. Nurse always spoke highly of him during post-game interviews. Can’t wait to see more of him in a Raptors jersey! Welcome home, Armoni!
He's such an intelligent, well-spoken gentleman. Welcome to Toronto, Ontario!
One of the great Open Gym episodes I've seen in a while. Congrats to Armoni on his new contract. He will help this team with his shooting tremendously.
congrats Armoni ...welcome to TORONTO!
great episode as always
NNurse having no voice was hilarious and a good n classic finish!
LETS GOOOOOOOOOO
Open gym getting better. Good one!
Was pleasantly surprised to see the impact that Armoni has had on the team and his attitude fits the team really well. Hope he has a long career ahead of him.
Love having Armoni on the team! Super clutch 3s! Cant wait for more!
Seems like a really good guy. Well spoken, humble and has a growth mindset. Always a pleasure to see the Raps scouting out these gems that fit perfectly with our underdog, chip on the shoulder mindset
Gotta a little Ray Allen in him. Love this pick up. In Masai We Trust. #WeTheNorth
As someone that's who's favorite player is Ray and has watched him a ton, comparing Brooks to him makes very little sense.
Please elaborate on the Ray Allen comparison because that’s a crazy take
@@steverito simply from his fluid shooting motion, body and hand position after release. Armoni a little shorter but similar builds.
Armani most definitely has that swagger. He's already making a big impact for the Raps. In Nick Nurse and this front office we trust. ❤️🙏🏽🦖 #GoRapsGo #WeTheNorth
Great produced ep. I hope he sticks with the team.
Armani is such a nice guy love to see this work out. And love his game got one of the nicest jump shots I’ve ever seen. Great role player for the raps tbh
Great pick up, Armoni’s work ethic and attitude are fantastic! Excited to see him play more with us!
Kudos to the Raps for picking mature young men, well-spoken,, hard workers looking for a chance to continue to chase their dreams. Everyone's journey can be different, but it can help in your development as a person and player. Champagnie , Brooks, Trent, Delano,Malachi. One of these players will burst out next season for the Raps, should be fun to watch.
He's so mature and I LOVE it!
congrats armoni! i can see him doin real well w the raps, i mean its hard to have good shooting pct % and not play a lil sloppy when u on a team like the rockets. he gonna clean up real nice if he locks in with the development team! we rooting 4 u
You the best armoni, good luck with everything thanks for playing for our team.
The Raptors are where ballers come to win
Saw him play vs the sixers mans a whole shooter was draining all of em great pick up and can’t wait to see what else he can do !
#ForeverCoog #GoCoogs
Congrats Armoni. Show them what you got.
Money’s on the right team
I watch every Raptors game! I thought Armoni has been part of the team for a long time
He's gonna go crazy during the playoffs! Just watch!
love armoni brooks
Masai knows how to find underdogs. Armani gonna be special!
I love this team!
We need that RDCWorld1 X Armoni collab
Glad to have you :)
Raptors found another gem.
Armoni knows how to shoot,let him shoot. Raptors sometimes lacking a shooter. If our shooter is having a bad play, try Armoni, Yuta, Banton, Flynn. They need some playtime just to give our starter a little break.
Another Gem!!! Those 3's sound like 💦
he is very similar to Lou Williams...which is HUGE!!!
He deff earned his spot
He can be the next Lou will
Hope hes a better defender than that.
@@fredscribner3688 obviously he is already
19:13 Nick Nurse had no voice from that Boston game lol🤣
Armoni hope you feel like Canada is your second home.. We love having you.. Keep grinding, defense/offense and enjoy the journey to the playoffs... Once again welcome to the #WeTheNorth
#Raptors #WeTheNorth chip planning
Yes and we will develop u soon
this guy can be special i hope that the raptors can make that happens for him.

Anybody notice after signing, this man has been riding the bench!?!?!? Come on now Nurse!
man, the Raptors are just too stacked right now, I hope Armoni finds another team
They need to release Yuta and sign DJ
Lou Will vibes
Dos
does anyone else think Armoni sounds like Dwayne Casey?
Can't be sure until I hear him say "Maturity"
Pat McCaw who can shoot.

Fred is one of five. The other four are Connie Hawkins, John Starks, Brad Miller and Ben Wallace.

The G league is a great feeder league now ..10 years ago it was a mess it has came so far in the last 10 years
This man should be playing as our back up pg next year… no need for Malachi he’s scared to shoot and he dribbles to much
