More than a week away from live games is helping the Toronto Raptors understand the offensive and defensive schemes being introduced by new head coach Darko Rajakovic.
Rajakovic said Wednesday that the nine days between pre-season games is helpful for his coaching staff to zero in on issues in a 112-99 victory over the Sacramento Kings on Sunday in Vancouver.
“They're just learning,” said Rajakovic on the court at the OVO Athletic Centre. “In the middle of the game, I liked our performance for the moment but watching film I liked it even more, but still I found even more mistakes and opportunities for us to grow.Rajakovic especially liked the number of deflections Toronto's defence generated against Sacramento in the Raptors first game of the pre-season.
Forward Jalen McDaniels, who signed with Toronto as a free agent on July 6, said that the lengthy spell between games has been great for him as a new player on the Raptors and helpful for the entire team to learn Rajakovic's schemes. “I've always been the type of player who learned a lot from real playing experiences,” said Poeltl. “I feel like that's where I've made the most improvements.Rajakovic also had updates on injured forwards Precious Achiuwa and Otto Porter Jr.
