The pieces fit a whole lot better without the pressure of Gay's 20 shots (most inefficiently) per game on the offense.īut less explored is the reality that Gay too has been much, much better removed from the Raptors. I n particular, DeMar DeRozan and Kyle Lowry have thrived with more opportunities to shine.
Toronto is now 13-5 since Gay was shipped to Sacramento for spare parts after starting 6-12. The Raptors' rise has been well-documented to date.
