The Toronto Raptors' hopes of winning the 2025 Summer League championship ended in a semifinal loss to the Sacramento Kings. Vivek Jacob recaps the loss, zooms in on some of the individual performances, and looks at some big picture takeaways from the five games played.It was another rough first quarter offensively for the Raptors and in a matchup of a great defence against a great offence, that was always going to spell doom. The Raptors trailed by as many as 22 in the third quarter but Jamal Shead led a spirited fightback that cut the deficit to just one point. It was all too little, too late as frustrations boiled over and head coach James Wade was ejected.Ulrich Chomche and A.J. Lawson probably had the most to be proud of from this Summer League campaign. We look back on the other notable performers over the five games as well.To wrap up, what are the big picture takeaways from Summer League?Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Monarch MoneyTake control of your finances with Monarch Money.

Collin Murray-Boyles was excellent in leading the Toronto Raptors to an 81-69 win over the Golden State Warriors and a place in the 2025 NBA Summer League semifinals. Vivek Jacob goes solo to break down the win and look ahead to the semis on Saturday against the Sacramento Kings.A quick recap is followed by analyzing what made Murray-Boyles so successful in this contest. As we've come to expect, the defence was immaculate but what really stood out was scoring 20 points pretty comfortably. Listen in to understand how he was used and why he was effective. Alijah Martin was also an important part of keeping the Raptors' offence afloat in the first half.In the second segment, we take a deeper look at why Ja'Kobe Walter, Jamal Shead, and A.J. Lawson struggled to score. After scoring 26 in the previous game, it was disappointing to see Walter have a complete dud in this one. To their credit, despite the offensive struggles, they all brought great intensity and energy on the defensive side of the ball.Finally, the show wraps up with a preview of the semifinals against the Kings. Sacramento is scoring very efficiently and so this will be a great test of an excellent Raptors offence.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!OpenPhoneStreamline and scale your customer communications with OpenPhone.

The Toronto Raptors remained undefeated at the 2025 NBA Summer League with a 101-97 win over the Denver Nuggets. Vivek Jacob goes solo to break down Ja'Kobe Walter's amazing performance, the team unity shining through in a tense moment, and more growth from Ulrich Chomche.This was the performance we've been waiting for from Walter at Summer League. He was clearly the best player on the floor, scoring at will and making play after play on the defensive end to finish with SEVEN steals. His 26 points in 29 minutes were the biggest factor in the win.E.J. Liddell seemed intent on getting under the Raptors' skin in this one and ultimately got himself ejected after elbowing Walter to the ground. What was great to see Toronto's perspective was just how together the team was in that moment and how everyone -- including Darko Rajakovic from the sidelines -- was prepared to do what it took to protect Walter.Finally, touching on the performances of Collin Murray-Boyles, Jamal Shead and Ulrich Chomche. Chomche in particular continues to show just how much he's learned over the past year and that the game is genuinely slowing down for him.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!OpenPhoneStreamline and scale your customer communications with OpenPhone.

RJ Barrett is being shopped according to reports but is that the right move? Vivek Jacob is joined by theScore's Joe Wolfond to discuss Barrett's current fit on the team and if it's right to view him as the odd man out. Later, they also discuss what a suitable trade for Barrett would look like and if the Raptors should feel the level of urgency they do to make next season a big one.The first segment considers the Barrett we saw in the second half of the 2023-24 season versus the one we saw in 2024-25. How close does he need to get to the efficiency of '23-24 to be viewed as a good fit? The discussion also focuses on his defence and the biggest areas for improvement.In the second segment, Jacob and Wolfond dive into whether Barrett should be used in a deal for a "big fish" or more as a roster depth move. There are clear needs on the roster and perhaps there's a path to addressing those without giving up too many additional assets.Finally, it appears as though several teams are pouncing on a perceived opportunity next season because of the injuries to Jayson Tatum, Damian Lillard, and the uncertainty over Joel Embiid. Is this really the Raptors' time to pounce?Discord: https://discord.gg/yHDw6EzhSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!OLIPOPGet a free can of OLIPOP!

What are the most intriguing aspects of Brandon Ingram joining the Toronto Raptors? Vivek Jacob is joined by Sportsnet's Blake Murphy to discuss Ingram's chemistry with Scottie Barnes, his impact on the team's three-point shooting, and his impact defensively.The opening segment specifically focuses on how the Brandon Ingram - Scottie Barnes pick-and-roll can be effective. What has Ingram's time in New Orleans told us about what we can expect in Toronto? Jacob and Murphy also examine how crucial Barnes' development as a screener is in this aspect.Next, the discussion focuses on not just Ingram's three-point shooting but his playmaking. Ingram attempted 6.5 threes per contest last season and that will need to hold if not increase with the Raptors. What's the best pathway to get there and beyond? Both Jacob and Murphy consider Ingram's playmaking and passing ability to be a bit underrated and so they look at how his drive game can create more three-point opportunities for the team.Finally, the defence. Is Ingram better off as part of the Raptors' backline or along the perimeter? How does that impact the rest of his team? We have seen Barnes excel in the back line but he may now need to continue to improve his defence on the perimeter so Ingram can slot in where he's best suited.Discord: https://discord.gg/yHDw6EzhSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!OLIPOPGet a free can of OLIPOP!

Khaman Maluach is increasingly being labelled a defensive big. Derik Queen is widely viewed as an offensive big. Are we being too quick to judge here? Yes, the limitations of their respective games exist currently but how confident should we be about putting these players into boxes so soon.In the first segment, Vivek and Katie use Ochai Agbaji as an example of someone who joined the Raptors with low expectations and many figured wouldn't factor into the Raptors' equation for very long. Lo and behold, Agbaji turned things around in a hurry this season. What were people missing with him? What does that tell us about what we might be missing with the current draft prospects?In the second segment, the focus is on the Raptors' youngest players. What preconceived notions did the likes of Gradey Dick, Jamal Shead, Ja'Kobe Walter, and Jonathan Mogbo come in with and how has that changed over time. What did we learn about them this season, essentially.Lastly, we look ahead to next season. What are realistic expectations for the Raptors' youngest group? What changes can we anticipate?Discord: https://discord.gg/yHDw6EzhSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!OLIPOPGet a free can of OLIPOP!

If the Toronto Raptors were to draft Maryland big Derik Queen or Illinois guard Kasparas Jakučionis, they would need to be absolutely elite on the offensive end to justify it. In Episode 1887, Sean Woodley goes solo for his last show pre-paternity leave to try and get a second opinion on Derik Queen and Kasparas Jakučionis, two prospects he's been largely out on as fits with the Raptors in the lead up to this draft -- but can a second viewing of both change his mind? Off the top, Sean talks about Queen's very fun face up game and post craft as a scorer and the passing flashes that make him pop as a short-roller before digging into the defensive limitations and sub-elite offensive skills that make him just too tough a fit to envision succeeded next to Scottie Barnes. Next, Sean talks about Jakučionis, who flashes all kinds of cool passing craft and plenty of good shooting indicators, but runs into trouble any time he tries to turn the corner without the help of a screen; is his offensive game too limited to counter balance what will probably be a very low defensive ceiling? Lastly, Sean fields a listener question about offense/defense balance, and gets into why using Nikola Jokic and Tyrese Haliburton as examples of poor defenders leveling up in the playoffs isn't terribly helpful for a team like Toronto, which simply does not employ such generational offensive talents.

The Toronto Raptors continue to get mentioned by NBA Insiders as a potential suitors for Phoenix Suns star Kevin Durant -- and it seems extremely desperate on the Raptors end of things! In Episode 1886, Sean Woodley and Katie Heindl chat about Marc Stein's latest KD rumour-stoking on Sportsnet last night and get into why a Raptors pursuit of Durant feels so needlessly thirsty before diving into some mailbag questions from you, the listeners! After the KD talk, Sean and Katie field a question about whether the Raptors as constructed with no offseason moves apart from making their draft picks and bringing back Chris Boucher are a Top-6 level team in next year's East, which ex-Raptors they'd wanna be marooned with on a desert island with, the vibes-based pickups the Raptors should consider this summer, which young Raptors are due for the biggest leaps next season, pizza party evolution, and maybe the stupidest question ever asked in a mailbag show.

The Toronto Raptors need Brandon Ingram to stay healthy in 2025-25 -- but will he? In Episode 1885, Sean Woodley goes solo to field listener questions about the health of Brandon Ingram, building around Scottie Barnes' elite defense, and whether the championship Toronto Raptors of 2019 were "good" or "lucky" in a world where only one can be true. Off the top, Sean answers a question about whether or not Brandon Ingram will play more than the 59.6 per-year average he sported before just playing 18 games this past season. Plus, what's Scottie Barnes' best defensive role, and how can the Raptors build with that in mind? Next, which Raptors jersey will be the first that Sean buys for his soon to be born son? And if only one of the two options can hold up, were the 2019 Raptors lucky, or good? Lastly, Sean fields questions about the sliding doors of the 2021 NBA Draft, and whether it's the right time for the Raptors to pushing to be competitive in a bad Eastern Conference.Discord: https://discord.gg/yHDw6EzhSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!OLIPOPGet a free can of OLIPOP!

NBA Insider Jake Fischer reported over the weekend that teams around the league thing the Toronto Raptors could be a Kevin Durant suitor if Giannis Antetokounmpo -- and it seems like a pretty silly idea if true! In Episode 1883, Sean Woodley goes solo to address the possibility of the Raptors targeting Kevin Durant, and why the only possible trade construction -- RJ Barrett and Jakob Poeltl for KD -- would leave the Raptors with a roster far too weird to work with. Next, Sean talks about how some potential Raptors draft picks at ninth-overall would fit into the team's plans as rookies. Would Khaman Maluach be a 20-minute a night backup from day one? Would Carter Bryant and Noa Essengue be G-League bound for most of their first seasons? Could Cedric Coward and Collin Murray-Boyles contribute right away? And would Kasparas Jakucionis get free run of the second unit right away? Discord: https://discord.gg/MAfE5MPJSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!OLIPOPGet a free can of OLIPOP!

Another day, another trade rumour! The Brooklyn Nets, per Nets Daily, are reportedly looking at packaging Cam Johnson and the 19th pick in order to move into the NBA Draft Lottery with Raptors being on the list of teams they've contacted. In Episode 1882, Sean Woodley takes a look at whether a Cam + 19 for RJ Barrett + 9 trade would make sense for Toronto, talks about the seemingly impending return to purple and why the Toronto Raptors have to avoid following the very lame trend set by the Orlando Magic's throwback rebrand, and digs into French prospect Noah Penda. Off the top, Sean outlines why a Cam + 19 offer would HAVE to include RJ Barrett going back the other way, why the on-court basketball fit of Johnson next to Immanuel Quickley, Brandon Ingram, Scottie Barnes and Jakob Poeltl would make a ton of sense, and the biggest reason the Raptors probably ultimately hang up the phone. Next, Sean gets into the leaked Raptors draft night hats that featured prominent purple, hinting at a potential rebrand. Although if Orlando's botched attempted to honour the 1990s this week is any indication, it's far from certain that this doesn't get totally botched by Nike. Lastly, Sean talks about defense-first French prospect Noah Penda, whose upside will entirely depend upon how his unrefined scoring game fills in around a nice baseline package of defense and passing.

The NBA Finals get started tonight between the OKC Thunder and the Indiana Pacers, and the importance of depth in today's NBA has never been more obvious; do the Raptors project to have enough to compete going forward? In Episode 1881, Vivek Jacob is the captain now, and he and Sean Woodley talk about the state of the Raptors depth, how they compare with the depth boasted by the NBA Finalists, and the Giannis Antetokounmpo of it all. They chat about how the Raptors as currently constructed are pretty well set up to have the requisite depth to navigate the slog of 82 games as soon as next season, especially with the 9th-overall pick about to be added to the mix. Next, they compare how the Raptors' depth stacks up compared to Indiana and OKC when it comes to playoff readiness. Lastly, they chat about how a potential Giannis trade could alter the depth for the team, and why the Raptors probably can't fork over too many roster players and remain viable in a league where having a bunch of good players is king.

With just over three weeks to go until the NBA Draft, it's time for a Toronto Raptors-focused Draft Night Big Board! In Episode 1880, Sean Woodley goes solo to run through his ten best draft prospects for the Toronto Raptors to target with the 9th-overall pick in the upcoming NBA Draft. Off the top, Sean talks about the one prospect he wishes would be be there at 9, but almost certainly will not: Oklahoma guard Jeremiah Fears, before running through his top-ten prospects for Toronto who could conceivably to still be available when Toronto is up on the clock. Duke big man Khaman Maluach takes the top spot as he has for Sean throughout this pre-draft process, and Sean outlines while the high floor / crazy upside combo for Maluach is a combo worth banking on. Next, Sean dives into fast rising wing Cedric Coward, who Sean is all in one despite a lack of high level college tape. Noa Essengue, the springy French wing rounds out Sean's ideal top-3. Lastly, Sean runs through spots 4 through 10 on his board, with thoughts on Duke's Kon Knueppel, Arizona's Carter Bryant, South Carolina's Collin Murray-Boyles, Illinois guard Kasparas Jakuciounis, Michigan's Danny Wolf, Georgetown's Thomas Sorber, and Michigan State guard Jase Richardson.

This weekend saw some more Giannis Antetokounmpo noise perk up regarding the Toronto Raptors, as ESPN's Brian Windhorst alluded to the Raptors being in the market for a big fish, and the Toronto Star's Doug Smith reporting that there's mutual interest between both sides -- but does it change anything about how the Raptors might stack up in the Giannis sweepstakes? In Episode 1879, Sean Woodley goes solo to talk about the latest Giannis reporting, and ask the question: how much is too much for the Bucks' superstar? Off the top, Sean digs into the loose reporting from Smith and Windhorst, resets the Giannis trade landscape and the factors lining in favour and against the Raptors being able to make it happen. Next, Sean gets into what the right price to pay for Giannis would be for the Raptors in order to both satisfy the Bucks' wants and leave behind a team that can project to be a contender in the coming years while Giannis is still in his prime. Can RJ Barrett, Scottie Barnes and all the picks get it done? And if more needs to be included, does it begin to make the team left over too thin to make the deal worth the risks? Lastly, Sean takes a moment to give Pascal Siakam his flowers for winning Eastern Conference Finals MVP before doing a thing he almost never does: get mad at national media discourse about Siakam.

If the Toronto Raptors don't intend to keep RJ Barrett around long-term, this summer could be the ideal time to trade him at the peak of his value. In Episode 1878, Sean Woodley goes solo to outline the cases for and against the Raptors moving on from the local fan favourite this summer. Off the top, Sean gets into the case in favour of finding a taker for Barrett this summer when he might be at the absolute peak of his value as a trade asset, coming off a productive season and with a couple years left to go on his deal. That, plus the concerns about his fit within the new-look Raptors post-Brandon Ingram all point towards him being a potential trade piece this offseason. Next, Sean outlines the case against trading Barrett, why keeping Barrett on the roster is probably the best way to optimize the team's overall talent quotient going into next year, and why it seems a little premature to break up a version of the team we haven't even seen play together yet. Lastly, Sean takes a look at the Sacramento Kings and Dallas Mavericks as a pair of potential trade partners in the event Barrett is on the market. Could a Barrett swap of Malik Monk and old pal Jonas Valanciunas be realistic? Could Dallas offer some more helpful depth in exchange for Barrett, who could certainly have a large offensive role next season with Kyrie Irving sidelined for most of the season? Plus, Sean announces the winner of this year's Over/Unders & Props listener contest! Discord: https://discord.gg/ne8mNrY6 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Washington State wing Cedric Coward is one of the fastest risers in this year's pre-draft process, and he might just be working himself into the Toronto Raptors range at 9th-overall. In Episode 1877, Sean Woodley goes solo to talk about Coward's impressively well-rounded game and absurd shooting touch and why it'd fit beautifully into what the Toronto Raptors are looking for on the roster, as well as the implications of so many potential first or high-second round prospects opting to return to school and pull out of next month's draft. Off the top, Sean details why Coward's blend of size, shooting and connective passing would be right at home within the Raptors' system, and why he's nudging his way into serious consideration to be the Raptors' selection at number nine if guys like Khaman Maluach and Jeremiah Fears are off the board by the time Toronto picks. Next, Sean looks at the second round pool thinning out as a number of college players opted to return to school this week, why it's changing the makeup of the second round talent pool, and why the change is ultimately good for the sport at multiple levels even if it stings teams drafting in the early second round. Lastly, Sean examines whether or not the Raptors could move their second round pick (39th-overall) in an effort to sneak into the back part of the first round, or take advantage of a cash-strapped contender.

With the Toronto Raptors season now comfortably in the books all of the NBA's awards handed out, it's time to tally up the results from the 8th Annual Locked On Raptors Over/Unders & Props Contest! In Episode 1876, Sean Woodley is joined by the usual combatants, Vivek Jacob and Sahal Abdi, to review their preseason picks on 18 differrent over/unders and prop bets about the 2024-25 Raptors season. Off the top, they rattle through some player-specific over/under bets, including Scottie Barnes' combined points, rebounds and assists, RJ Barrett's true shooting percentage, Jakob Poeltl's minutes totals and Immanuel Quickley's made three-point field goals. Then, they run through some team-centric over/unders and props, including the final NET rating of the expected starting lineup that barely played together, whether Scottie Barnes or the rest of the starting five would have more dunks by season's end, the Raptors' final ranking on offense and defense, and their full season win total. This exercise definitely isn't driving your lovable underdog host more insane by the year. No way!

The Toronto Raptors could have their pick of a handful of interesting forwards with the 9th-overall pick in next month's NBA Draft. In Episode 1875, Sean Woodley goes solo to dive into the games of South Carolina's Collin Murray-Boyles, St. Joe's Rasheer Fleming and Arizona's Carter Bryant to see how each of their games might fit in with the Raptors. Off the top, Sean details why Collin Murray-Boyles is one of his favourite overall prospects in this draft, and why his biggest weakness probably means he'd be set up to fail if the Raptors were to draft him. Next, Sean talks about big time riser Rasheer Fleming, who has the frame and shooting stroke of a modern front court player, but has some serious questions when it comes to his craft with the ball in his hands. Lastly, Sean digs into Arizona Freshman Carter Bryant, who maybe isn't the most eye-popping prospect, but projects to be the kind of helpful 3 & D wing that every good team needs.

Pascal Siakam and OG Anunoby are both standing out for their teams in the Eastern Conference Finals, which has a lot of folks reflecting on what could have been had their stayed in Toronto, but was there any way the Raptors could have salvaged the Siakam-Anunoby version of the team? In Episode 1874, Sean Woodley and Vivek Jacob take a look back on the past few years of Raptors transactions made and not made and try to piece together an alternate version of the past that sees Pascal Siakam and OG Anunoby stick it out in Toronto for the long haul. Off the top, they get into the mid-season trades of Anunoby and and Siakam during the 2023-24 season, why by the time those deals were made, there was no salvaging the team build around them, and why the returns in the deals hold up as pretty solid, if imperfect. Next, they take a look back at the Jakob Poeltl trade in 2023, and the summer of action that preceded it in 2022 that really was the point at which the core became doomed to fail. Lastly, they examine the impact that drafting Scottie Barnes had on the team's trajectory, and why him falling into the team's laps after the Tampa Tank season may have set the entire course of actions that led us to where we are today.

The Toronto Raptors have said they want to add a young big man to the team; what if they added a young and WEIRD big man with the ninth-overall pick? In Episode 1873, Sean Woodley digs into a trio of super interesting big man prospects in this year's class and gets into whether or not they'd make sense for the Raptors to take a swing on with the ninth-overall pick. Off the top, Sean gets into Michigan point center Danny Wolf, who does things with the ball in his hands that big men are not supposed to do. But is he TOO strange a prospect to really hit in the NBA? Next, Sean gets into Georgetown freshman Thomas Sorber, who's a bit more traditional as a defense-first, interior scoring big man, but who brings plenty to the table as a connective passer as well. Lastly, Sean talks about Stanford big man Maxime Raynaud, who's coming off a crazy productive season at Stanford and might be the single best bet in this year's big man class to be a true stretch big at the NBA level. But can he hang on the defensive end?

The Toronto Raptors have long been pegged as having a clear type of prospect they dig in the NBA Draft, but do they still actually target the classic "Raptorsy" prospects they were once known for? In Episode 1871, Sean Woodley goes solo to dig into some NBA Draft-themed mailbag questions from the listeners! Off the top, Sean digs into whether the Raptors' recent selection of Gradey Dick and Ja'Kobe Walter mark a change of direction for the Raptors front office, and answers whether or not such a thing exists as a "Raptorsy" prospect anymore. Next, Sean gets into the last fourth ninth-overall picks -- Zach Edey, Taylor Hendricks, Jeremy Sochan and Davion Mitchell -- and discusses where those teams went wrong, if they did at all. Lastly, Sean dives into a question about the types of skills he tends to watch for in prospects that hint at their NBA translatability, including feel blended with athleticism, passing acumen, shot-making and multi-role projectability.

Would Kasparas Jakucionis, Egor Demin or Jase Richardson be an ideal guard for the Toronto Raptors at ninth overall? What about Noa Essengue, Carter Bryant or Collin Murray-Boyles on the wings? Or Khaman Maluach, Derik Queen or Asa Newell in the front ourt? In Episode 1870, it's time for draft-themed, brand-new, classic Locked On Raptors Stupid Little Game called PICK ONE, where Sean Woodley and Vivek Jacob pit three prospects the Toronto Raptors could consider at 9th-overall against one another and pick the ideal fit!
