NBA 2018-19: 5 talking points from the Raptors' win against the Wizards

#3 Raptors flourish with sharing and good ball movement

Annuoby is one prime example of the Raptors' recent success paying off

The Raptors are playing good team basketball on offense and here was no different - recording 32 assists on 46 field goals made against the Wizards. Nine players recorded at least one assist, with Lowry and Fred VanVleet combining for 16.

Their offense works best when the ball is moving quickly and the opposition defence is forced to shift across as a result. Leonard was making good decisions in possession, where he was isolated and drew extra defensive attention. For the season thus far, the Raptors are 7th overall in assists-per-game with 25.6, which is encouraging to say the least.

Lowry has been excellent so far this season. He's averaging a double-double with 15.4 points and 10.5 assists per game up to this point. Should he maintain this pace throughout the 82-game stretch, it would be his highest APG of his career. It just goes to show that adding Kawhi and Green has continued to breed newfound confidence in Toronto.
