The Toronto Raptors are NBA CHAMPIONS... still!
One year ago, the Toronto Raptors won the coveted Larry OβBrien trophy for the first time in franchise history. The long road was full of obstacles but the Raps finally came home to complete and utter glory.
Kawhi Leonard's one season in Toronto was a memorable one, and even though he left there will always be love for him North of the border.
To celebrate the anniversary, we take a look back and some of the great content to come out immediately following the historic championship.
