Why Bismack Biyombo Won’t Return to the Raptors

The 2016 Playoffs contained quite a few storylines for the Toronto Raptors.

  • The team managed to reach the Eastern Conference Finals for the first time in franchise history
  • Head coach Dwane Casey proved his critics wrong by earning a new four-year contract as he spearheaded the organization’s success
  • The sensational rise of Bismack Biyombo into a key contributor. Biyombo up until this point had yet to evolve into the defensive phenomenon that he was built up to be coming into the 2011 NBA Draft. However, his performances in the playoffs when standing in for the injured Jonas Valanciunas has attracted much attention around the league.
