The Toronto Raptors were unable to retain the services of center Serge Ibaka this offseason, as he traded in a role as a starter in Toronto for the chance to chase a championship with the Los Angeles Clippers. As painful as it was for Toronto fans, it looked like a perfect fit.
Even though the Clippers needed a point guard, Ibaka could’ve been the perfect stretch big to accentuate Kawhi Leonard and Paul George on the perimeter.
