Can the Toronto Raptors have a better bench in 2024-25 than they did last season?
In Episode 1694, Sean Woodley is joined by Jamar Hinds (Raptors Republic) to talk about the Toronto Raptors bench and whether or not it has a chance of giving the team more production and winning minutes than the reserves of 2023-24 did. Off the top, they dig into whether or not the talent on hand in the second unit is better than it was last year, with Kelly Olynyk and Bruce Brown in line to play a full year with the team, Davion Mitchell added into the mix, and a bunch of rookies potentially vying for minutes in backup roles. Plus can Immanuel Quickley and Scottie Barnes’ minutes be staggered enough to keep one of them on the floor at all times? And can the poor results for Barnes plus four reserves groups from last year turn around? Next, they dig into how the Raptors can go about finding the right balance between rookies and veterans, and who the four leading minute-getters off the bench will be for the team this year. Lastly, Sean and Jamar pitch a few hypothetical bench lineups they’d like to see next season, ranging from pretty reasonable and realistic to super duper weird.
