One of the most tenured Guards in Toronto Raptors history, Alvin Williams had a near eight year run with Toronto.  Alvin would have two seasons where he had over 10 Points per Game and three where he eclipsed 5 Assists per Game.  Alvin Williams may not have been the most productive Raptor of all time, but he is one of the few who played over 400 Games for Toronto.
Bet most of you did not remember that Tracy McGrady was a Raptor. 

McGrady joined the Raptors as a teenager, and did not become a starter until halfway through his third season.  Despite the limited minutes he had in Toronto, he would show incredible efficiency with two seasons over 20 in PER.  In his third season, he averaged over 15 Points per Game and was clearly a star on the rise, and it was largely forecasted that he was close to being an All Star, which would happen…just not as a Raptor.
Every franchise has a first main attraction and for the Toronto Raptors that player was “Mighty Mouse” Damon Stoudamire.  In the Point Guard’s two and a half seasons in Toronto he would average 19.6 Points and 8.8 Assists per Gamer, which would be far the best numbers of his career.  For his efforts in his debut season in the National Basketball Association, Stoudamire was awarded the Rookie of the Year, the first individual trophy in Toronto Raptors history.
The move from Indiana to Toronto proved to be a fruitful one for Antonio Davis as he would move from bench player to starter.  He would become one of the team’s leaders and in the 2000-01 season would have career highs in Points (14.1), Rebounds (10.4) and Blocks (2.0) per Game.  That year Antonio Davis would make his first and only All Star Game.  He would also finish in the top ten in Offensive Rebounds three times with Toronto.  The only think keeping him from cracking the top ten is that he was not the best shooter, especially considering his position on the floor.
