Toronto Raptors: 3 Raptors That Performed Well in their Seeding Games

The Toronto Raptors just wrapped up their last seeding game in the NBA bubble in Orlando, and the team continued from where they left off from the regular season.

With the Toronto Raptors eight seeding games now complete in the bubble in Orlando we got a good look at the team again and how guys were performing.

There were a select few players that caught my eye with their performance through the team’s eight games in Orlando.

Some players picking up from where they left off in the regular season and some who are playing out of their mind as they are getting more minutes on the floor in the bubble.

3. Norman Powell – 27 years old – SG/SF

2019-20 bubble stats – 8 GP – 13.6 PPG – 3.6 RPG – 1.6 APG – .445 FG% – .405 3P% – .869 FT%

At my number three spot to start this list off of three Toronto Raptors that performed well in their eight seeding games, I have Norman Powell. Powell was the only Raptor on this list to be available and play in all eight seeding games and he definitely made it worth the playing time as he put up a good stat line.

Like I constantly keep saying and like we all know by now, Powell was having a breakout season this year with the Toronto Raptors, however, injuries kept on keeping him out of the lineup just as he was being consistent with his play on the court. With the time off due to COVID-19 I expected a lot of Raptors to be well-rested and ready to dominate in the bubble for their seeding games, and Powell was one of them.

Powell played in all eight games putting up a pretty good stat line overall with 13.6 PPG / 3.6 RPG / 1.6 APG. Looking at his rebounds and assists through the eight games in the bubble may not seem all that intriguing, however, he was shooting the lights out as his field goal percentage and three-point percentage were both above .400, and his free throws were just under .900. I can confidently say that Powell will continue this play into the playoffs. (Stats from ESPN.com)
