Raptors coach Nick Nurse keeping his assistants on their toes

It’s not just figuring out playing rotations that Toronto Raptors coach Nick Nurse has on his plate early in this NBA season.

He’s also figuring how and when to rotate his top three assistant coaches.

Toronto Raptors head coach Nick Nurse (centre) is still trying to figure out how to deploy his lead assistants, including Nate Bjorkgren (left) and Adrian Griffin (right, with blue tie).

It certainly doesn’t change as often as his substitution pattern of players does but Nurse is finding out just how his assistants will be deployed later in the year when the games matter a bit more with the post-season approaching.
