The Toronto Raptors all but guaranteed themselves the 7th spot in the NBA Draft Lottery in May with a 116-86 win over the Brooklyn Nets, and it's kind of a relief! In Episode 1834, Sean Woodley goes solo to recap the Raptors beat down of the Nets, and dig into what it means for their pursuit of good position in the NBA Draft Lottery. Off the top, Sean gets into where the probabilities now lie with him in the lottery picture, why 7th in the lotto is close to locked up at this point, and why that's kind of a relief. There's no real need to live and die with night to night results the rest of the way, and this year's draft is loaded with interesting prospects in the Raptors likely range. Plus, does this free the Raptors up to unleash Brandon Ingram for a brief run to close the season? Next, Sean runs through the highlights from the Raptors' crop of rookies on Wednesday night, including Ja'Kobe Walter's passing, Jamison Battle's rebounding, Jamal Shead's floor management and Jonathan Mogbo's stat-stuffing. Lastly, Sean runs through The Good (Orlando Robinson's 23 & 12, Ochai Agbaji), The Bad (the Nets' excellent broadcast getting wasted on this Nets team) and The Hmm (French prospect Noa Essengue) to round out the show.
