Pacers guard was instrumental in the development of VanVleet, Wright during his time in Toronto.

Indiana's Cory Joseph, defended by Kyle Lowry, the player he backed up in Toronto, never hesitated to help the players that were nipping at his heels with the Raptors.

DeMar DeRozan says Cory Joseph is “the smoothest” guy to have come through the Raptors organization in the nine years DeRozan has been with the team, and that’s high praise because smooth is cool.

Fred VanVleet said he couldn’t have a more helpful and professional mentor in his rookie season than Joseph.
