Toronto Raptors get swept in home & home vs. Orlando Magic | Is Gary Trent Jr’s future still TBD?
In Episode 1596, Sean Woodley is joined by Vivek Jacob (Sportsnet, Raptors in 7) to break down the Toronto Raptors’ 0-2 home-and-home weekend against the Orlando Magic in which Gary Trent Jr. played well, but not a whole lot else went right for the freefalling Raptors. Off the top, they chat about Gary Trent Jr.’s back-to-back strong showings, and whether we are any closer to getting clarity on GTJ’s role with the Raptors going forward as his free agency draws nearer. Is his shooting worth keeping him in the fold on its own? Can he perform in any context outside of being a starter? And how much could GTJ be worth on the open market this summer? Next, Sean and Vivek chat about a rough weekend for Immanuel Quickley, who up against the length and nastiness of the Magic’s defense, showed off some of the areas where he’ll still need to improve in order to fully tap into his ample potential as a lead guard. Lastly, Sean and Vivek run through The Good (Jordan Nwora’s 3rd quarter on Sunday, Bruce Brown settling in), The Bad (Kelly Olynyk’s defense, some truly awful half court offense) and The Hmmm (Jahmi’us Ramsey, The Magic as an aspirational team for next year’s Toronto Raptors to take after) to round out the show.
