The 2003-04 Toronto Raptors season was marked by inconsistency and challenges. The team finished with a 33-49 record, failing to secure a playoff berth. This season was notable for the firing of head coach Lenny Wilkens, who was replaced by Kevin O’Neill. Despite the coaching change, the Raptors struggled, especially on the offensive end, ranking near the bottom in points per game.
Vince Carter, the team’s star player, averaged 22.5 points per game but dealt with injuries that limited his impact. The team also faced issues with chemistry and roster stability. Notably, the Raptors traded away Antonio Davis, bringing in Jalen Rose from the Chicago Bulls in an effort to shake up the lineup. However, these moves did not significantly improve their performance. Overall, the season was seen as a disappointment and led to further changes in the offseason.
- Regular Season Record: 33-49
