The 2004-05 Toronto Raptors finished the NBA season with a 33-49 record, missing the playoffs for the third consecutive year. Head coach Sam Mitchell was in his first year, bringing new strategies to the team. Despite a promising start, the Raptors struggled with consistency throughout the season.
Vince Carter, the team’s star player, was traded to the New Jersey Nets in December 2004, marking a significant turning point. In return, the Raptors acquired Alonzo Mourning, Eric Williams, and Aaron Williams, along with two future first-round picks. Mourning never played a game for Toronto and was subsequently waived.
Chris Bosh emerged as a promising talent, leading the team in scoring and rebounding after Carter’s departure. The Raptors’ performance fluctuated, showing potential but ultimately falling short. The season highlighted the need for a stronger supporting cast and further development of young players like Bosh.
- Regular Season Record: 33-49
