Toronto Raptors: Top 10 NBA Draft picks in franchise history

7. Morris Peterson (SG) — No. 21 pick in 2000 Draft

Career stats (with the Raptors): 542 GP, 12.0 PPG, 3.8 RPG, 1.8 APG, 1.0 SPG, 0.2 BPG, 1.2 TOV, 42.1 FG%, 37.1 3P%, 78.2 FT%

Morris Peterson may not have any All-Star appearances to his name, nor was he someone who would produce highlights regularly. And yet, he’s in the top 10 in multiple categories in Raptors franchise history.

Points, rebounds, steals, games played — these are just some of the statistics in which Peterson made his mark with Toronto on the all-time leaderboards.

He was a solid contributor for the Raptors, a complementary role player, who, at his best, put around 15 a game while spacing the floor out to the 3-point line, shooting 37.1 percent from that distance on 4.0 attempts per game while in Toronto.

Compared to some of the more historic teams in the NBA, Peterson’s numbers may not even crack the top 20, but simply his presence in these top 10 totals show a loyalty to the franchise that drafted him, one that spanned seven seasons.
