Build a Franchise (Season 8) Discussion Thread- Philadelphia is now on the clock until 4PM

ooof when I saw Gafford with 14 pts in 11 minutes I just thought foul trouble vs Giannis. But then I saw 1 foul and was just hoping it would be a minor injury. Then saw the broken arm...looks like he is going to miss the rest of the regular season. I think mid April is first round of the playoffs so hopefully will get him back around then.

Until then it will be next man up!

The Toronto Raptors beat the Dallas Mavericks for a 117-99 home win at Scotiabank Arena to get back on track after a disappointing loss in their prior game in their building.

Six Raptors scored in double-figures, led by Victor Wembanyama doing a bit of everything and more hot shooting from Michael Porter Jr. The Raptors shot 56.0% from the field as a team, hit 53.6% from three, and 88.9% from the free throw line.

Toronto’s record improves to 47-12, remaining atop the Atlantic Division despite the Brooklyn Nets recent winning streak. In the Eastern Conference playoff picture, the Raptors maintain the 2nd seed.

Even Wagner sucks too… this is some bs. I have arguably the best wing duo in the league and they’re playing like the Sixers version of Paul George and Melo right before he retired.
