For a franchise in business for only 15 years, you can find a surprising amount of debate around the Raptors All Decade team.
Start with the fact that, no single Raptor came even remotely close to playing through 2000-2010. It’s the nature of NBA and sports in general. Morris Peterson is the franchise leader in games with 542. Every one was played this decade. That’s nearly seven full seasons but the field drops off from there.
Obviously with so many truncated Raptor careers, longevity can’t be the deciding factor.
Davis stands sixth in games played, fifth in minutes, second in rebounds per game, third in blocks, free throws made and free throw percentage, fifth in points second in offensive rebounds, defensive rebounds and rebounds and tenth in career points per game. Andrea Bargnani (2006 to present) has improved steadily since arriving in Toronto as the first overall selection in the 2006 draft. Since his rookie season, Bargnani has pushed his points per game from 11.6 to 16.3 and his rebounds per game from 3.9 to 6.1. Underrated as a defensive player, Bargnani has the ability and the contract extension that would allow him to usurp Davis.
