Is it time Toronto gave Matt Thomas a larger role with the team?

Make no mistake, if the Toronto Raptors are to repeat as champs, it's going to be because of their defence. That said, the team, specifically the lesser-known players, will need to make shots throughout the process.

Frankly, there isn't a better shotmaker on the Toronto Raptors than Thomas, though, he plays so sparingly that it's easy to forget about him when discussing such matters – the fact remains, the first-year Raptor is a helluva shooter.

Facing the Indiana Pacers on Sunday, Thomas scored a career-high 17 points in Toronto's thrashing of Nate McMillan's squad.
