I think if we put together a solid playoff run this year, we can be like last years GSW team, which had a similar spike in public support following their playoff run.I know this may be a bit controversial but I think the Raptors have proven that they're the best team in the NBA from Canada

Durants favorite players growing up were Vince Carter and Tracy McGrady on the Raptors. He was a big fan of the team in his youth. We could leverage that nostalgia and with the all star game in 2016 giving more exposure, it is not a stretch to convince him to come up here and make a bigger impact than the hero of his youth, Vince Carter.

I'd go one step further, the Raptors should pursue him. Make a pitch to LeBron, make a presentation. Worst case, it will show ambition, put the team on the map.
Just don't sacrifice other, more realistic plans. GSW made a run at Dwight. But it didn't stop them from making other plans and signing Iguodala, re-signing Bogut, making trades.
