The high flying rookie DeMar DeRozan has been using his athleticism to make some plays for the Toronto Raptors this year.  DeRozan gets limited minutes, but he sure does make the most of them.  He has the ability to make an impact as soon as he steps on the floor and there aren’t too many players (if any) that can match his athleticism.  DeRozan is my favorite to win the NBA Dunk Contest at All-Star weekend, but see where he ranks amongst the other top rookies in my list of the Top Rookies in the NBA so far.

The Raptors didn’t play any D last night as the Bucks shot 52.5% from the floor and it did them in. Chris Bosh led the way for the Raptors last night with 26 points, 10 rebounds and 2 assists. Jarrett Jack got another start last night and he finished up with 12 points, 3 rebounds, 7 assists and 3 steals. Sonny Weems pitched in with 12 points and 2 assists in only 19 minutes off the bench. The Raptors are now 10-14 on the year.

The Raptors only shot 32.1% from the floor last night but it didn’t matter. Chris Bosh led the way for the Raptors last night with 21 points, 16 rebounds and 3 blocked shots. Jarrett Jack got a rare start last night and he responded with 17 points, 7 rebounds, 8 assists and 2 steals. Hedo Turkoglu pitched in with 16 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists last night.
