32. Delon Wright

Delon Wright was one of those players who, even though he was a bench player, was vastly underappreciated while he was a Raptor.

A First Rounder and Second Team All-American from Utah, Wright was Toronto's backup Point Guard for three-and-a-half seasons, providing defensive prowess and a nice change of pace.  In Wright's fourth season, he was traded to Memphis with Jonas Valincuinas for Marc Gasol, and Toronto went on to win the NBA Title.  Wright might not have been part of that championship, but he was a reason they got there.
