As Toronto Raptors fans, we didn’t have much to cheer about last season. Our team was 3,000 miles away, and, well, they kinda stunk. But the biggest bright spot in a mostly dark season was the ongoing development and improvement of OG Anunoby.
Before the 2020-21 season tipped off, Anunoby secured the bag, as they say, signing a four-year, $72 million contract extension. While technically that extension kicks in for next season, it still put additional pressure on Anunoby to live up to that potential this past season.
Thankfully, he did exactly that, and if that growth continues, he’ll quickly turn that contract into one of the best bargains in the league.
