Default Strange hand after flopping straight

Villain is 34/8/2.5 after about 80 hands. A typical semi-LAG, and my note on him says, "slowplays too much." Is it an easy call on the river? I just didn't see what he could have that I was beating. Thanks for the help.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ Hero (6 max, 5 handed) converter

MP ($89.85)
Button ($35.80)
SB ($99.92)
Hero ($100)
UTG ($20)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $0.50.
<font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, SB (poster) completes, Hero checks.

Flop: ($2) J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $2</font>, SB calls $2.

Turn: ($6) 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $6</font>, SB calls $6.

River: ($18) 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $10</font>, <font color="#CC3333">SB raises to $45</font>

I call here. Would he slowplay hands like w/J9, J10, 910? You say he slowplays too much but does that mean that he has been waiting until the river to pop a raise when he has position or has he been calling flops, raising turns w/strong hands. He could have Q8 which has to be your only real worry as you would expect a raise from KQ preflop. I would also assume he would raise TT, 99, and JJ preflop here as well. I call here and hope to see two pair but you have to just roll with the punches if you are shown Q8.
