We'd like to nominate Kyle Lowry's cross court bullet over/around Tacko Fall (2020) straight into OG Anunoby's shot pocket for a winner ATB. Gotta be Top Ten.

Thought of the 2021 NBA Finals. When Ayton went down with the ankle injury, Dario Saric, a competent backup, wasn't able to handle Lopez. Depth matters at every position but with Embiid so "undurable", it becomes more important for Philly.

RaptorQueensPodcast @raptorqueenspod.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

On the broadcast, they commented that Mike Brown was very complimentary of Hukporti and said that this is a good opportunity for him. Now this. Very ironic too that Philly and NY signed each other's backup PGs.

RaptorQueensPodcast @raptorqueenspod.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

For sure. But not exactly a top shelf C if the 6ixers have aspirations to go deep. Tacky Fall too but same.

RaptorQueensPodcast @raptorqueenspod.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Philly's backup C helped off the court in the first Q, non weight bearing. Rough for PHI given Embiid's durability.

RaptorQueensPodcast @raptorqueenspod.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

Raptors lose 129-105. Difficult to extrapolate trends from this one. Big minutes for the likely 905 guys. Tyreke Key might be somebody to watch. No Graves, Bittle, Martin. Starters played ~ 17 min each. RJ looked great, hustled on D, 7/8 from FT line. Raptors pushed pace but shooting awful.

011

RaptorQueensPodcast @raptorqueenspod.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

Takeaways from Media Day; Darko in a suit, Kawhi very relaxed and engaged/preempted ANY Clippers/Aspiration questions, Scottie strongly hinting that failing to make All NBA First Team Defence was a personal insult, RJ charming and insightful, IQ healthy, motivated, Jakob--back feels good, he's ready

Hoop Collective crew had some very complementary observations about Allen Graves, how he sees the game on a more advanced level than a rookie would be expected to.

Lowry celebration shows Raptors have slam-dunk template for honouring legends

When it comes to honouring their history and elevating their legends, the Raptors seem to have it figured out. Michael Grange has the story from Kyle Lowry's charity golf tournament.

It is safe to say that Kawhi has never had a coach like Darko.

Not a great feel for BI either. Sure it's a business but he came here as a FA in good faith.

RaptorQueensPodcast @raptorqueenspod.bsky.social · 07/08/2026

Gotta say...this situation could/should have been addressed in 2019 when the Raptors and Lakers went to NBA leadership about demands which were clearly in circumvention of the cap. We wouldn't be here today.

Truly the dog days of summer. NBA news trickling in. Lots of conjecture and hot takes out there. Def not wishing the summer away but baseball ain't hoops!

RaptorQueensPodcast @raptorqueenspod.bsky.social · 17/07/2026

Raptors beat the Heat. More good two way play by Graves 23-6-4-1-2; skills lining up with scouting report. Some intriguing playmaking and 3 pt shooting by Nathan Biddle last 2 games. Raps eliminated from the Summer League Playoffs. Training camp starts on/about Sep 29. Nothing going on til then 😉

Didn't catch the names of the broadcast crew for the UTA/SAS game tonight. Play by play guy is hilarious.

RaptorQueensPodcast @raptorqueenspod.bsky.social · 13/07/2026

Raptors beat the Pacers 94-93. Down to the last possession. Seth Lundy making a huge case for an NBA future, 4/7 from 3, huge extra effort block to secure the W. Graves looking comfortable, excellent shooting touch, again active on the boards. Full stat line for Nathan Biddle. Hello Danny Green!

030

RaptorQueensPodcast @raptorqueenspod.bsky.social · 12/07/2026

Raptors beat the Rockets. Impressive shooting from Seth Lundy 6/9 from 3. Allen Graves solid. No double/double tonight but full effort on every sequence. Jaden Bradley struggled, played only 8 min. Gotta agree with Stan VG and John Wall...coaching staff fits gotta go.

090

RaptorQueensPodcast @raptorqueenspod.bsky.social · 11/07/2026

Got a good look at Allen Graves vs Boston. Excellent two way effort. Double double. Gives that extra effort on the boards. Hustles for loose balls. Tough shooting night for Bradley but nice herky jerky attack.

This piece captures the essence of Kyle Lowry. A privilege to watch him play all of those years. Determined, obstinate, stubborn, cerebral. Two moments stand out for me...Game 6 of the 2019 Finals and the 30 pt regular season comeback vs Dallas. Thanks for this Es!!! Good to relive these memories.

JUST IN: The Toronto Raptors have exercised the $2.30 million team option on Jamal Shead for the 2026-27 season, league sources told @hoopshypeofficial.bsky.social. Shead played all 82 games, averaging 6.6 points and 5.4 assist per game for Toronto last season.

Watching the pressers for both Allen Graves and Jaden Bradley. Clearly both mature for their ages and genuinely enthusiastic about being in Toronto. How far this franchise has come...."believe in this city, believe in yourselves."

Could easily be argued that the Raptors should draft a big. Really curious about this pick.
