February 28th, 2020 was the last time the Toronto Raptors had a normal day at Scotiabank Arena. They played the Hornets, lost a close game, and then hit the road for the West coast trip that would conclude in Utah. You know what happened next.
Nearly 18 months to the day, the Raptors congregated at their home arena again for this season’s media day, and it felt almost... normal?
Sure there were six feet between each chair and masks and vaccination proof at the door, but otherwise, all the first day of school vibes you expect from media day were very much in the air.
