3 Raptors players in line for more playing time after Bruce Brown's surgery
No. 2: Ochai Agbaji
While Gradey Dick is the clearest beneficiary in terms of playing time from BruceBrowns's absence, the player who is likely to see the largest shift in role is Ochai Agbaji. He may go from not factoring into the regular rotation at all to being a nightly participant.
Agbaji has not met the potential he showed his final season at Kansas, and his two-way play upon arriving in Toronto at the Trade Deadline was truly horrid. He shot just 39.1 percent from the field and a ghastly 21.7 percent from 3-point range in 27 games last season.
If the third-year wing brought enough in other areas he could make a case for patience for the shot to come around, but he's been a below-average defender and a mediocre rebounder and overall offensive player. There isn't much to recommend him at this point.
This could be the last burst of consistent playing time that Agbaji receives in the NBA. It probably comes down to the shot for him; he needs a hot streak to show he can be a weapon from the perimeter and earn himself a longer look. The more time Brown is out, the longer Agbaji's final audition is.
