To make a long story short, the Toronto Raptors have made life miserable for Caris LeVert.
LeVert was a bonafide star in the seeding games, averaging 25 points per game and earning All-Bubble Second Team honours while leading the walking wounded Brooklyn Nets to a 5-3 record. He scored 37 and went toe-to-toe with Damian Lillard as the Nets nearly knocked the red-hot Portland Trail Blazers out of playoff contention.
However, it’s been a different story against the Raptors. Through two games, LeVert is shooting 10-for-36 from the field and averaging 15.5 points. In Game 2, LeVert shot 2-of-14 from the first quarter onward as the Nets fell into a 2-0 series deficit against the defending champions.
