The Toronto Raptors called upon the services of many unheralded players during their 2020-21 campaign, but one of the more encouraging performances came from a sharpshooting guard in Paul Watson Jr. that established himself as a Raptors 905 sensation the season prior.

Watson averaged 19.0 points and 6.5 rebounds on 49% shooting and 43% from beyond the 3-point line with 905, and after two brief cameos with Atlanta and Toronto, Watson got his first extended minutes with the Raptors this season.
