The Raptors’ Chris Boucher should be getting more minutes than Aron Baynes.
The Toronto Raptors have built the back end of their roster with a motley crew of outcasts and G League darlings that Nick Nurse and company have molded into quality NBA players. Chris Boucher, a former G League MVP, could be the next to fully ascend to stardom and follow in Fred VanVleet’s footsteps, but Nurse seems hesitant to put him in the rotation.
With the combination of Aron Baynes and, on occasion, Alex Len at center doing little to help one of the worst offenses in the league, the time has come for Nurse to finally put Boucher next to Pascal Siakam in the starting lineup.
