The Toronto Raptors currently have 20 faces proudly smiling back at the camera on their roster page. Obviously that won’t be the case much longer, as the team will carry no more than 14 to open the regular season (on Thursday, October 19 at 7:30 at home against the Chicago Bulls – not that I’m excited or anything).
Here’s my view of the likely depth chart on the day the ball goes up for real:
Point Guard – Kyle Lowry, Delon Wright, Fred VanVleet [there’s no one else truly in the picture]
Shooting Guard – DeMar DeRozan, Norman Powell, OG Anunoby [OG will begin the season in street clothes.
