The Toronto Raptors finished the season with a 27-45 record, their worst season since 2012. This record doesn’t necessarily tell the whole story for this Raptors team. They had to deal with a number of issues such as COVID-19, never truly playing at home, and ultimately deciding to tank the rest of the season.
The decision to tank helped the Raptors jump up to the No. 4 selection where they picked Scottie Barnes, a surprising pick to some.
