The Raptors currently are the 4th seed out east. They have a six game separation between the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Just recently, the Raptors were able to acquire Serge Ibaka and PJ Tucker. Due to Lowry’s injury, he will not be able to get a feel of how they play on the court. Chemistry issues on the court will be brought up as Lowry returns.
