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.

Brought in for his strong veteran presence, Power Forward, Donyell Marshall would string together productive offense as a Raptor.  Marshall, who was traded early in the 2003-04 season from the Chicago Bulls would finish the Toronto portion of the season with a 16.2 Points, 10.7 Rebounds and 1.6 Blocks per Game, a stretch that was the best of his career.  Marshall was used off of the bench the following season (his second and last with Toronto) but still had over 10 Points per Game.

Although he was a part of some good Sacramento Kings teams, Doug Christie’ had a pretty good run were with the Toronto Raptors.  Christie would have three top five finishes in Steals per Game and never had less than 10 Points per Game per season as a Raptor.  Christie would later have appearances on the All Defensive Team, he was certainly in the conversation for such an accolade as a Raptor.
