Grant Williams / Jordan Hawkins

You did a really nice job with the about face straight into a retool on the fly, while still being able to compete with anyone. I respect the work you’ve put in.

Re: Build a Franchise (Season 8) Discussion Thread
The Toronto Raptors defeated the Memphis Grizzlies 121-99 for a home win at Scotiabank Arena, in a game in which they never trailed and led by as many as 28 points.
They set the tone early, jumping out to 40-13 lead by the end of the 1st quarter, then never looked back, led by Michael Porter Jr. who continues to shine off the pine.
Toronto’s defense has been stingy as ever lately, holding their 4th straight opponent (and 6 out of their last 8) below the 100 point mark.
Toronto’s record improves to 32-10, maintaining 1st in the Atlantic, 2nd in the Eastern Conference, and winners of 4 straight (9 out of their last 10).
Michael Porter Jr.
24 PTS | 4-9 3PT | 5 REB

Re: Build a Franchise (Season 8) Discussion Thread
Damn! I got Richaun Holmes to be a tank commander but in two games since acquiring him and putting him in the lineup he's put up 19/10 and 17/7!
Anyone want him for free! He's killing my draft position!
