2018-19 NBA Eastern Conference: Atlantic Division Standings so far

#1 Toronto Raptors

Kawhi is averaging career-high numbers in scoring and rebounding this season.

The inclusion of Kawhi Leonard into the Raptors' scheme of things is a gift that keeps giving. The Raptors are right up there with the Bucks in the East, en route to a potentially deeper and more solid playoff campaign than ever before. The front office and coaching staff have pulled out all the stops to make it through in this LeBron-less era of basketball in the Eastern Conference.

Toronto is one of few teams sporting two All-Stars in their starting lineup. The team's cumulative win-loss record stands at a sturdy 43-16(0.729) on the season and 8-4 against teams from this division.

They lead the Atlantic Division by a fair margin and have lost only 5 of the 29 games played at home this season so far. Heading into the postseason, the Raptors roster looks equipped to handle any kind of opposition, in the backdrop of some quality reinforcements in Grizzlies veteran big man Marc Gasol and backup point guard Jeremy Lin.
