Grading every Toronto Raptors player after turbulent 2022-23 season

Bigs

Pascal Siakam: A

Jakob Poeltl: A

Precious Achiuwa: B

Christian Koloko: B

Chris Boucher: B-

Siakam may have had some rough patches at the end of the season, but he made the All-Star team for the second time in his career and still has an outside shot at making All-NBA once again. All things considered, that’s a fairly successful campaign for the standout offensive creator.

Poeltl provided a gigantic shot in the arm, so much so that it is fair to question if Toronto would have even been in the position they are in now without his contributions as a rebounder, defender, and finisher. He will likely get a huge contract when free agency kicks off.

Pascal Siakam and Jakob Poeltl were terrific for the Toronto Raptors.

The Achiuwa/Boucher combo was less potent than it was last season, stemming from the former’s wild swings on offense and the latter’s general lackluster play. Achiuwa, more so than Boucher, looks like a player that is still worth developing for Toronto.

Koloko is likely not going to be an All-Star center in this league, but the flashes we have seen from him this season were so bright that it is fair to wonder if he is going to be a starter at some point. A tremendous defensive player, Koloko’s finishing will be the key to his improvement.
