Why Toronto Raptors star Scottie Barnes has the tools & the teammates to lead a good NBA offense

Scottie Barnes has the keys to the Toronto Raptors now, shot creation is the single most important area of development to watch with him this season as he attempts to ascend the ranks and be considered one of the league’s true foundational players. In Episode 1725, Sean Woodley digs into what’s at stake for Scottie as a shot creator entering year four and why he is set up to have success as a pick-and-roll creator on this edition of the team before fielding some listener questions. Off the top, Sean discusses the latest from Raptors practice on Thursday before diving into why Barnes’ shot creation is set to come into focus this year. Does he have the goods as the leading man in a productive NBA offense? How will Darko Rajakovic’s system, and the existence of Immanuel Quickley help foster his development and ease his burden as a leading man? And what kinds of playtypes can Barnes most lean into as the engine of the Raptors’ attack? Then, Sean opens up to mailbag and discusses the way the Raptors have built the team around Barnes, and why he’s set up to have success as a pick-and-roll ball handler on this team more than he has been in the past. Plus, answers to questions about bench player Voltrons, Jonathan Mogbo’s relationship with Barnes, affordability and fandom and choosing one Raptor to fit a free-throw with the fate of the universe on the line.
