Keep those wins coming

How many games will the 2021 Toronto Raptors win? To find out this answer we averaged out the team’s records in the past few years and combined it with a few other factors

In the past three seasons the Raptors have won an average of 55 regular season games. They have also lost an average of 26.

With Wiggins and Leonard this Raptors team could easily be a 60+ win team.  LeBron James is no longer in the Eastern Conference which means it will be wide open. Theoretically with the level of talent on this team the East would be Toronto’s to lose.

Going into the Playoffs the Raptors should theoretically be in one of the Eastern Conferences top three seeds. With this in mind a championship seems like too far fetched of a prediction for a team this young. However, a deep run to the Conference Championship Series is where we will put this team.

Hopefully the 2021 Raptors will increase their number of victories on the road. The 2018 Toronto Raptors had a 25-16 away record.

Record projection: 61-21
