"Scottie Barnes and Collin Murray-Boyles might seem ill-fitting at first blush. Modern NBA offence can feel so dependent on shooting and spacing."
"Both have shown glimpses of floor-stretching this season, Murray-Boyles to start the season and Barnes in the playoffs, but neither has proven they can shoot the ball well for a reliable sample."
"If those doubts hadn't been silenced already, the Raptors' first-round series against the Cavs have put them to bed."
Scottie Barnes and Collin Murray-Boyles are the only top-10 picks for the Raptors in the last nine seasons. While modern NBA offense emphasizes shooting and spacing, both players have shown potential in floor-stretching. However, they have not consistently demonstrated reliable shooting. The Raptors' first-round series against the Cavs has alleviated doubts about their abilities, showcasing their strengths despite initial concerns about fit within the team's offensive strategy.
