The Toronto Raptors are facing off against the Cairns Taipans in their second preseason game of the year. The Taipans are an NBL team who is visiting Canada in order to test their might against NBA talent.
Recently signed Raptor, Makur Maker will be playing against some of his old league mates as he played in the NBL before, and today will most likely be a game where most of the younger guys get a real shot to see live game action, so expect new head coach Darko Rajakovic to test out some guys who didn’t see time on the floor last game.
