Everything to know about the April 8 eclipse in Atlantic Canada | SaltWire #eclipse | SaltWireThe nightmare is finally over, and the Raptors can actually make it two straight wins for the first time since right out of the all-star break in February with some of the lightest competition there is up next. The Washington Wizards have flirted with the NBA’s worst record and bring an 8-30 road record into Sunday’s game.
What’s at stake with these seemingly meaningless games? Well, keep in mind that the San Antonio Spurs get Toronto’s first round pick if Toronto doesn’t land in the Top 6 after the May 12 draft lottery, thanks to the Jakob Poeltl trade. Keeping the pick this year would mean the team would likely surrender it to the Spurs next year in a draft considered far stronger though .
The Raptors also own Indiana’s first round selection this season from the Pascal Siakam trade . Most likely that means Toronto will have the 17th or 18th pick.
