Toronto Raptors
Best Player On The Roster: Kyle Lowry
2013-14 Stats: 17.9 points, 7.4 assists, 4.7 rebounds
Word: Kyle Lowry earned the contract he received this offseason. The only question is whether he can carry last season’s success to this year. I’m not sure he can.
Worst “Good” Player On The Roster: Jonas Valanciunas
2013-14 Stats: 11.3 points, 8.8 rebounds
Word: Valanciunas didn’t take the next step last season like many thought he would. He’s good, but if the Raptors want to compete in the Eastern Conference this season, he’ll have to be really good.
