Kawhi Leonard or not, the Toronto Raptors are still the defending NBA champs, and swingman OG Anunoby is entering the season with that mindset.
On Saturday, Anunoby discussed his expectations for the coming year.
“I think we’re gonna repeat,” he said, per Ryan Wolstat of the Toronto Sun. “We have a really good team and we believe in ourselves, and that’s all that matters.”
The 22-year-old Anunoby missed the Raptors’ entire championship run due to an emergency appendectomy, but he and the rest of the team will have a much greater opportunity to produce now that Leonard has gone to the LA Clippers.
Management has already given the indication that they are all in on their remaining core, and it sounds like the Raptors players feel the same way too.
