It will take some miracle work to get this version of the Toronto Raptors into the top tier of NBA contenders. Still, this team has the potential to make the playoffs if they can fill some of the obvious gaps on their roster. Losing streak or not, we saw what a healthy and well-balanced Raptors attack looked like back in November. I don't think that was for nothing; it showed they could be a sleeper threat and make some noise, even if they weren't quite at the elite level yet.
Toronto is currently dealing with the troubling absence of RJ Barrett.
