Toronto Raptors
Hey, we’ve seen stranger things. The Toronto Raptors emerged as one of the most intriguing teams in 2019-20 and could carry that over to next season. In fact, they could push it a step further by adding a player like DeMar DeRozan, even if it is just for one season. If the Raptors want to emerge as a real threat in the East, they likely need to add one more “star.”
Even though the duo of Kyle Lowry and DeRozan may not have worked a few years ago, who’s to say that it wouldn’t work with Pascal Siakam thrown in? Plus, it would be one of the great feel-good stories.
DeRozan coming back and making another run with the Raptors would be quite the story. However, there might be too much bad blood involved here. I’m not sure if DeRozan and the Raptors left on good terms.
Even though it would be an intriguing story, DeRozan playing a rental season with the Raptors seems unlikely. But I’m still not completely throwing it out of the realm of possibility.
