The Toronto Raptors took a big gamble in the 2023 offseason, firing Nick Nurse and replacing him with a relative unknown in Memphis Grizzlies assistant Darko Ra
Looked at in this way, Darko has in some sense given us a new backup role player in a position of need. That’s a heck of a thing for a new coach to do.
The only thing I’d really like Darko to be working more on is Precious. He was formerly an inconsistent roleplayer with some real strengths. Recently, he hasn’t even shown that, and I don’t know of any reasons for him to have gotten worse. Perhaps he’s had an injury? I just don’t know.
