Damn, Fred vanvleet was so close to all NBA defensive team. Hopefully next year he makes it, Raptors fans know how valuable he is on that end of the floor. Next year if we have a top 5 defense he will be a lock.

I doubt it's the full list, but available reports show the Raptors interviewed the following players at the NBA Draft Combine:
Benedict Mathurin
Jared Rhoden
Leonard Miller
Jalen Wilson
Dyson Daniels
E.J. Liddell
Imagine the raptors lineup just from draft picks in the past 15 years:
PG: Scottie Barnes
SG: DeMar DeRozan
SF: OG Anunoby
PF: Pascal Siakam
C: Jonas Valanciunas
NBA players talk regularly about how much they hate playing against Toronto's defense but I guess NBA writers have decided Nick Nurse gets all of the credit for that.
Throughout the month of May, we’re celebrating Asian Heritage Month and shining the spotlight on members of the Asian community within our Raptors organization.
Today, we’re recognizing Nikki Garcia, Physical Therapist, Raptors 905.

No Raptors on NBA all-defensive teams though Fred VanVleet got fifth-most points in voting amongst all guards. Scottie Barnes got two second-team votes, OG Anunoby one, Pascal Siakam none.
Once the Raptors improve their guard depth in the offseason, it’ll pave the way for Fred VanVleet to:
•Play at an All-Star level throughout season
•Make an All-Defensive team & lead TO to a top-4 seed
•Be healthy for the playoffs so the Raps can win at least 1 round
DO IT
People who disagree want y’all to do me a quick favour and watch the film of his game on 3-12-22 against the Denver Nuggets.
25-8-10 + 3 stocks on 55% FG. Outplayed the league MVP.
He got a chance to develop into a monster 2-way wing one day.

good luck on the next scapegoat
I love the fact that we got PD Boucher as a Raptors fan but I can't say I particularly like the Fearless card scheme. Although his particular expression fits the card art.

Mykhailiuk came as a 36% shooter from 3 for his career, in his lone season with us he shot just 31%. He will probably opt in and be on the roster next year. I'm hoping he can regain his shooting form we need it.
