The fallout of Bruce Brown’s knee surgery & projecting the Toronto Raptors’ opening night rotation

Bruce Brown Jr. is having arthropscopic knee surgery and will be reevaluated in three weeks — what does it mean for the Toronto Raptors? In Episode 1711, Sean Woodley and Vivek Jacob discuss Brown’s knee surgery and the players on the Toronto Raptors roster who will most be impacted by his early season absence before taking a swing at assembling the Toronto Raptors’ early season rotation, minute-by-minute. Off the top, they dig into Brown missing time, the strange reaction to the news from some corners of the fan base, and how his absence will affect players like Ochai Agbaji, Ja’Kobe Walter and Davion Mitchell’s roles and minutes in the early going. Next, Sean and Vivek try to piece together their ideal Raptors rotation by beginning with the starters. Is Jakob Poeltl in line for a career high in minutes? And will Gradey Dick get handed a heavy workload as a second-year player? Lastly, they attempt to piece together the bench rotation. After Kelly Olynyk, Mitchell and evenutally Brown, who else will get a shot? Will Chris Boucher get one last swing at a regular role? Will Ochai Agbaji and/or Ja’Kobe Walter have until Brown’s return to carve out a season-long role? How will the Raptors stagger their starters in with the bench? And is there any way Jonathan Mogbo carves out a major rotation role?
