Last night, during the Raptors game against the New York Knicks, DeMar DeRozan made a bit of history. After scoring 27 points on 12-of-17 shooting, and fending off a late Knicks rally, DeRozan moved into the number two spot on the Raptors all-time scoring list. The man he passed was none other than Vince Carter.
With a total of 9,426, DeRozan is now just 849 points behind the Raptors' all-time leading scorer, Chris Bosh. Unlike the other two players in this rarefied air, who both left the team under bad circumstances, it seems likely DeRozan will re-sign with Toronto next season and eventually claim the top spot.
