Leonard and the Raptors were a match made in heaven before, so why couldn’t the pairing work out just as well again?A devastating interior defender capable of changing games with his shot-blocking and rim protection alone, Gobert would look great anchoring Toronto’s defence and, while on offence, rolling to the basket and catching lobs.
He’ll hopefully be fully healthy this coming season to prove himself a max guy once again, and if he is he’ll have plenty of suitors. Over the span of his 11-season career, Holiday has played a full 82 games only once, and managed to play 70 or more just four times. It’s hard to point to an athlete who more whole-heartedly embraced Toronto and the role of being a sports icon within it than DeRozan did, and bringing him back would likely go over very well among fans and the media, alike.
