Raptors star DeMar DeRozan lost his cool at the end of a Drew League pro-am game, chucking the ball at the referee before leaving the court.

Kyle Lowry has reached an agreement on a contract to return to the Toronto Raptors, reportedly for three years and $100 million, per Woj. Lowry was probably the biggest fish left in the free-agent point guard pool, but a diminishing number of potential starting spots made it increasingly likely that Lowry would be…

Serge Ibaka has reportedly agreed to a three-year, $65 million contract to stay with the Toronto Raptors. Meanwhile, P.J. Tucker, the other big acquisition the Raptors snagged at last season’s trade deadline, will depart for Houston, having agreed to a four-year, $32 million contract. Assuming Kyle Lowry will return…

In a press conference today, Raptors president Masai Ujiri said, “I feel talking now is BS, why we need to do this today, might as well talk to me in a month,” but nevertheless offered some 6,303 words of speculation on his team’s future. Those words were interesting, if fogged in layers of nuance, hedging, and veiled…

The Toronto Raptors came into these playoffs with a well-known “LeBron Stopper” on the roster in DeMarre Carroll. The Hawks got swept by the Cavs when Carroll played the role for Atlanta in 2015, and James averaged 26.0 points, 8.5 rebounds, and 6.7 assists on 62.2 percent shooting when the Cavs beat Carroll’s Raptors…

Kyle Lowry was on the bench with a sprained ankle yesterday while his team got punted out of the playoffs by LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers for a second consecutive season. Lowry knew the Raptors’ season was over after they lost Game 3 on Friday night, and he was feeling existential afterwards.

For the second year in a row, the Cavaliers have handily disposed of the Raptors in the playoffs; this year, handily is an understatement there.

So far the story of the second-round series between the Cavs and the Raptors is the degree to which the Cavs are completely unbothered by their opponents. Here’s the series summed up, in one image:

For the second consecutive postseason, it has become abundantly clear that the Toronto Raptors are going to get owned by the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The Cavs may have had their troubles almost blowing leads against the Pacers, yet they still swept Indiana away and got a week off before their second round series against the Raptors. Indiana gave the Cavs more trouble than they anticipated, but LeBron James remains untouchable so it sort of didn’t matter. The…

Are the Cavs a bit rusty after an eight-day layoff between the first round and the second?

Midway through the fourth quarter last night, it looked as if the Bucks might pull off a nifty comeback and force a Game 7 after being down by double digits for much of the second half. They did not.

While the gates of the Eastern Conference are not exactly wide open, LeBron James’s chokehold on conference supremacy is as weak as it’s been in many years. The Cavaliers’ defense is worryingly porous and even though they just swept the Pacers, the series featured multiple blown leads and every game was close. Most…

The Raptors ripped out of the gates against the Bucks tonight hungry and unafraid to contend with Milwaukee’s imposing length. Giannis Antetokounmpo in particular has menaced the Raps on both ends of the court, but Serge Ibaka had no problem getting around and over him for this smooth jam.

The Raptors started tonight poorly, and they didn’t do anything to get better. Down 35-12 at the end of the first quarter (twelve points in the first quarter), they never made anything remotely resembling a run and ultimately got embarrassed to the tune of 104-77.

The Indiana Pacers were up by 15 with 10 seconds left in their game against the Toronto Raptors when the Pacers’ Joe Young grabbed a rebound and kicked it out to Lance Stephenson, who jogged down the court for an easy layup. Immediately, the announcers started finger-wagging and taking Stephenson to task for defying…

After overcoming a 16-point lead, four threes from career 30 percent three-point shooter Rajon Rondo, and 37 points from Jimmy Butler, the Toronto Raptors beat the Chicago Bulls tonight. It took them 122 points and five minutes of overtime to do so, but for the first time in 12 matchups, the Raptors won.

A chest-to-chest staring match in the NBA actually popped off into a real actual fight tonight. The Raptors and Bulls don’t like each other, and in the third quarter with the Bulls up big, Serge Ibaka and Robin Lopez got into it after Jimmy Butler nailed a jumper. Unlike most other incidents where players “get into…

In the fourth quarter of the Wednesday night game between the Toronto Raports and the Washington Wizards, Raptors forward Serge Ibaka collected a pass under the basket, pivoted, and launched himself towards the rim for a one-handed jam. It looked like he’d make it, too, until John Wall swooped down out of nowhere to…

The Toronto Raptors announced today that all-star point guard Kyle Lowry, who has missed the last two games with swelling and pain in his right wrist, will undergo surgery, and “aim to return” for the playoffs:
