Raptors during we the north era 2014-2019 always had one of the best benches in nba
Starting with 2015 draft, delon wright and Norman powell
2016 draft, poeltl, Siakam and undrafted fvv
In 2 years we got 5 really good bench pieces which we developed. Siakam and fvv eventually became all stars
2017 draft we got og anuogby, another hit pick
2018 draft had to burn a first to get rid of demarre Carroll contract
2019 draft, pick went to spurs for Kawhi, bust with Dewan herendaz
Now this where things get muddy
2020 draft we just Malachi Flynn, right after Desmond bane selected
Jalen Harris off court issues
Flynn hasn’t developed at all in my opinion
2021 draft we land Scottie Barnes nice pick, but we go 0/2 with second round picks with David Johnson and banton
2022 draft we move back 15 spots for thad young, choose Koloko who has not made any impact, injuries and no offense game
2023 draft - Gradey dick, juror still out on. Right now tho no impact with bench
Then you got players like precious, trent who have made no progress development wise since they got here, same issues implied
We had many chances to have decent bench, front office and play development gas failed miserably, this wouldn’t have happen in 2014-2019 time
People forget, but we had TD2 and he was amazing with us. He really looked like a gem his first season. Off court issues killed him.
