2024 is here, and yeah, it couldn’t come soon enough for the Toronto Raptors. Calendar year-wise, it was pretty much a bomb — from the lacklustre 2022-23 campaign, to flaming out in the play-in, firing their coach and letting their lead guard walk for nothing, and the first half of the 2023-24 season hasn’t been much better, as the team sits at 12-20.
In fact, December may have been Toronto’s worst calendar month of the entire year. Not only did the Raptors go 3-10, but two of those losses came to the Charlotte Hornets and the Detroit Pistons.
