Locked On Raptors - Daily Podcast On The Toronto Raptors

The Toronto Raptors absolutely have the juice to earn the top seed in the Eastern Conference this season. In Episode 2203, Sean Woodley fields mailbag questions about the Raptors from you, the listeners! Off the top, Sean is asked to wax poetic about his hottest preseason take about the Raptors, which is probably that Toronto absolutely has a path to being the one seed in the loaded Eastern Conference this season. Next, Sean talks about the basketball things he's thankful for, including Kawhi Leonard joining the Raptors with contractual runway, Scottie Barnes interior passes, Terrence Ross' dunk on Kenneth Faried and more. Lastly, Sean digs into questions about whether the Washington Wizards scare him, one trade that could make the Raptors into no-doubt inner circle contenders, expectations for Ja'Kobe Walter, and one rule he's get every Raptors fan to tattoo on themselves before the season, Memento-style.

Is this something of a make or break season for Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley? In Episode 2202, Sean Woodley and Es Baraheni continue the Best Case / Worst Case series with a look at Immanuel Quickley, who is often maligned yet still quite helpful, and should be in a very good context within which he can thrive as Kawhi Leonard joins the team. Off the top, Sean and Es talk about the most likely outcome for IQ this season, which probably involves him looking like a slightly more potent version of the player he was last season, especially if his pull-up and transition shooting can regress positively back toward his career averages. Next, they talk about the absolute best case for this coming season, which would probably see IQ turn himself into one of the absolute best off-ball players in basketball while leaning into his pick-and-roll creation as he uplifts second units. Lastly, Sean and Es chat about the worst possible outcomes for this season, which likely involve an unavailable IQ and the shooting questions that would cast upon the whole roster. Plus, where does IQ fit into what is sure to be a season of speculation about whether the Raptors will seek to upgrade their roster before the deadline?

The Toronto Raptors and Orlando Magic have similar wing-focused roster builds, but are they headed in different directions? In Episode 2201, Sean Woodley is joined by Philip Rossman-Reich (Locked On Magic) to continue our tour around the loaded Eastern Conference and discuss the Magic, who might have more riding on this coming season than any team in the East. Off the top, Sean grills Philip about the crossroads Orlando finds itself facing, whether Sean Sweeney will have the juice to reinvigorate a team that disappointed greatly last year, and whether there's any hope of the Franz Wagner / Paolo Banchero duo. Then, Philip asks Sean about how the addition of Kawhi Leonard will affect how the Raptors play and the biggest holes on Toronto's roster as it's constructed. Lastly, they talk about how the Raptors and Magic each stack up in the Eastern Conference.

Is Toronto Raptors star Scottie Barnes a lock to make an All-NBA team this coming season? In Episode 2200, Sean Woodley and Vivek Jacob continue the Best Case / Worst Case series with a look at Scottie Barnes and his best, worst and most likely outcomes for the 2026-27 season. Off the top, they try to envision the absolute ceiling for Scottie this season. Could he flirt with a First-Team All-NBA spots and be on the fringes of the MVP conversation? Is he going to make First-Team All-Defense? Next, they talk about the things that could happen to bring about the worst case scenario for Scottie this year. Is the mid-range his most important offensive battle ground? Could he revert back to a more passive version of himself? And is the fit with Kawhi Leonard a surefire home run? Lastly, they chat about what they envision as Scottie's most likely outcome for this season, and they sure are bullish. All-NBA and First-Team All-Defense both feel very attainable; could he finish the year viewed as a Top-10 player in the league when it comes to driving winning? And if so, what would that mean for the Raptors' record?

The Toronto Raptors lost their preseason opener 129-105 to the Miami Heat on Saturday night, and it doesn't matter at all. In Episode 2199, Sean Woodley goes solo to talk through some of his takeaways from the Raptors' return to the court in Quebec City, with some thoughts primarily on what the Raptors offense is going to look like on nights where Kawhi Leonard doesn't play. Does the bully ball version of Scottie Barnes get unleashed in those games, similarly to how it was on Saturday? Plus, Sean rattles through some quick impressions of how RJ Barrett, Immanuel Quickley, Jakob Poeltl, Jamal Shead, Ja'Kobe Walter and Collin Murray-Boyles fared in their first taste of fake hoops. Lastly, Sean runs through The Good (Chucky Hepburn), The Bad (televised preseason basketball as a concept) and The Hmmm (a first extended look at the CMB-Jak front court) to round out the show.
