The Toronto guard is leading the team in offense as the best scorer and best assister with an average of 21.5 points, 4.5 rebounds and 6.9 assists per game. VanVleet is in a great moment and is taking advantage of the team's great moment to be at the top of the Eastern Conference and with some chance of being considered for the All-Star game. Without a doubt, the point guard's connection with Pascal Siakam bringing fruits to a team with few reflectors but worth seeing. The point guard comes after his first appearance in the All-Star Game and we will see him continue to show himself and see how far he can take the Raptors.
The Toronto team arrives in a great moment with a record of 32 wins and 27 losses, placing them in postseason positions. The Raptors come off a two-game losing streak against Charlotte and Atlanta. After the 2019 championship, the team is in a period of renewal, some stars have left and those from Toronto are looking to build a new champion team with Pascal Siakam and Fred VanVleet as their main figures. The Raptors' stars are having a great time and added to the talent of players like OG Anunoby and Gary Trent Jr. has made the team is located in postseason positions in the Play-In.
The Nets star is going through a great moment leading the team with 29.3 points, 7.4 rebounds and 5.8 assists per game. The Nets forward is a fundamental part of what the team can do and his level added to the ability of other figures such as Kyrie Irving, LaMarcus Aldridge and Blake Griffin, will be of vital importance to see if they are capable of keeping the title of the NBA. With the defensive additions of the team and the loss of Harden, the shooting guard will have more time in possession of the ball and we will be able to see how he leads the offense.
The Nets arrive after an important victory against the Milwaukee Bucks by a score of 126 to 123, now the team returns to the Barclays Center and will have very important duels and with the loss of Kyrie Irving due to the guidelines of the area, although everything indicates that these regulations will change shortly allowing the point guard to play more duels and help the Nets. The team is in eighth place in the Eastern Conference with a record of 32 wins and 29 losses. Already with the subject of Kyrie Irving come to less, the spotlights have turned completely to the good moment that the team is experiencing at the hands of Seth Curry, Kevin Durant and Andre Drummond. His best weapon is still shooting from a distance, but Brooklyn's defense has improved markedly and he is playing an important part in getting close results and using Irving as a piece to better organize the team's rotation in games away from Barclays Center and as a major boost.
