Raptors to rotate starting lineups based on matchups
Toronto Raptors head coach Nick Nurse hinted that the team will use different starting lineups throughout the season based on the matchup.
"You guys know some spots are solidified," said Nurse, "but there are other spots that are fluid and there will be a reason we trot certain guys out there." Kawhi Leonard and Kyle Lowry are locked into starting spots, but Serge Ibaka, OG Anunoby, and Jonas Valanciunas could play fluid roles throughout the season.
numberFire's models currently expect Ibaka to record 11.1 points, 6.1 rebounds, and 1.2 blocks per game this season.
