With only eight games to be played before the playoff seedings are set upon the NBA’s return to Orlando, Brooklyn Nets small forward Rodions Kurucs is already confident in his team’s likely playoff opponent.
Per Brian Lewis of the New York Post, Kurucs believes the Nets’ playoff chances in a potential matchup with the Raptors would be favorable.
“If we are the seventh seed, we’re going to go against Toronto probably. We definitely have a chance,” Kurucs said. “We have been competing with that team, and I definitely think we can beat them in round one.
