After a disappointing postseason loss, the Toronto Raptors head into an offseason filled with uncertainty. With a potential for many roster changes, we estimated the odds of each individual player returning next season.

The Toronto Raptors had great expectations heading into the 2018 postseason. The team just set the franchise record for wins, and after years of running into the proverbial “LeBron James wall”, this year was supposed to be different.

It wasn’t. The Toronto Raptors were swept by the Cleveland Cavaliers, marking their third loss in as many years.

After being handled by the buzzsaw that is LeBron James once again, it became clear, something needed to change. General Manager Masai Ujiri made his first move by firing head coach Dwane Casey. With Casey gone after a seven-year run, the Raptors will certainly look different next season.

But this teams problems run deeper than coaching, and if Toronto wants to seriously contend for a title, the roster will need a shake-up as well.

With no clear trade pieces and no defined cornerstones, as cliché as it sounds, the Raptors enter the offseason with more questions than answers.

With so many questions surrounding who will return next year and who will be dealt, I decided to break down the individual probabilities of each Raptor returning next season.
