The Toronto Raptors sit at 43-16 and second place in the Eastern Conference, but what’s been happening around the rest of the NBA? We take a look in our weekly NBA update.
All-Star weekend
The NBA’s All-Star weekend is a time to show off the league’s talent in a way that’s fun, exciting, and lighthearted. The Toronto Raptors who did attend performed admirably. However, none were able to take home any hardware. The best performers of the weekended were:
- Rising Stars MVP: Kyle Kuzma
- Three-point contest: Joe Harris
- Dunk Contest: Hamidou Diallo (A nice Vince Carter tribute by the way)
- All-Star game MVP: Kevin Durant
Now, Kyle Lowry and Kawhi Leonard can join the rest of their Raptor teammates in catching up on some rest before the final regular season stretch.
