Sydney Kings guard talks about their upcoming clash against the Cairns Taipans
In Episode 1492, Sean Woodley goes solo to detail his biggest takeaways from the Toronto Raptors' 134-93 win over the Cairns Taipans in NBA preseason action on Sunday. Off the top, Sean praises a strong performance by Chris Boucher on a night where, without Jakob Poeltl, the Raptors displayed some of the unorthodox but effective options they might have for the team's backup center minutes this season. Boucher's the running, cutting transition ace; Thad Young is the elbow-passing Jak understudy, and Scottie Barnes can do a little bit of everything as a small-ball five. Next, Sean talks about the apparent commitment to running off misses that this team is going to have this year, and how Dennis Schroder could be a swing factor between the Raptors' transition game being merely good, or at the top of the league's rankings.

In Episode 1492, Sean Woodley goes solo to detail his biggest takeaways from the Toronto Raptors' 134-93 win over the Cairns Taipans in NBA preseason action on Sunday. Off the top, Sean praises a strong performance by Chris Boucher on a night where, without Jakob Poeltl, the Raptors displayed some of the unorthodox but effective options they might have for the team's backup center minutes this season. Boucher's the running, cutting transition ace; Thad Young is the elbow-passing Jak understudy, and Scottie Barnes can do a little bit of everything as a small-ball five. Next, Sean talks about the apparent commitment to running off misses that this team is going to have this year, and how Dennis Schroder could be a swing factor between the Raptors' transition game being merely good, or at the top of the league's rankings.
