A look ahead to the second half of the season for the Toronto Raptors
"The Chicago Bulls were the most active team during the season's trade deadline as they traded away a bunch of players, including Nikola Vucevic and Kevin Huerter, to name a few. Although they are always in their usual spot, near the play-in picture, the front office finally decided to try to rebuild the franchise that has six NBA championships to its name, thanks to Michael Jordan and company."
"Milwaukee is also in the start of a rebuild, just like the Chicago Bulls, but they weren't nearly as active as Chicago at the trade deadline. Franchise player Giannis Antetokounmpo seems ready for a new chapter in his NBA career, as it looks like he doesn't want to play for the Bucks anymore, and Milwaukee did try to trade the former MVP at the trade deadline but probably felt they were getting lowballed at the moment."
Toronto opens the second half on February 19 at Chicago with two remaining road games against the Bulls (Feb 19, Mar 19) and a road game at Milwaukee on February 22, plus a home game versus Oklahoma City on February 24. The Bulls traded Nikola Vucevic and Kevin Huerter at the deadline and appear to be initiating a rebuild while remaining near the play-in picture. Milwaukee explored trading Giannis Antetokounmpo but found offers unsatisfactory, creating franchise uncertainty. Predictions favor Toronto to win both Bulls games and the Milwaukee matchup, extending Toronto's season-series leads.
