You play GM: Decide the fate of the Toronto Raptors offseason
The Toronto Raptors offseason has many possible outcomes. Will Kawhi Leonard stay? How can the team improve if he does? Should Toronto rebuild if he leaves? You play GM and decide the fate of Toronto.
The Toronto Raptors just completed the best season in franchise history. After trading away franchise staple DeMar DeRozan, going all-in on Kawhi Leonard, and making several other win-now moves, they became NBA Champions.
Now, they face the most critical offseason in franchise history. Depending on how things break, the Raptors could enter the 2019-2020 season as the title favorites or they could be starting a rebuild.
Rather than telling you what should happen next for the franchise, we’ve decided to let you choose. We’re letting you play general manager and decide the future of the Toronto Raptors. Click on the appropriate link at the end of each slide as we go through the critical decisions Masai Ujiri and company face this summer. In the end, you’ll see the team you assembled this offseason, with your GM skills.
Of course, the most important decision of the offseason is not under the Raptors control. Kawhi will have a large say in how the Raptors prepare for next year. If he returns, they’ll be all-in, ready to defend their title. If he leaves, it might make sense (again, we’ll let you decide) to start accumulating assets and begin the rebuilding process.
At the moment, no-one is sure what Kawhi’s decision will be. The Raptors are the best basketball situation, but there is too much smoke around the Los Angeles Clippers for there not to be at least a small fire.
With it being such a tight call, we’ll let you pick. Choose by clicking one of the links below:
