Features the classic Raptors logo from their first season,
Toronto was added to the NBA roster in the 1995-1996 season—an expansion that included two Canadian teams. Since 2001-2002, when the Vancouver Grizzlies were relocated to Memphis, Tennessee, the Raptors have been Canada’s only NBA team. Despite this seemingly solitary state, they have managed to host some of the league’s biggest superstars and have broken NBA records for attendance. With a fanbase that stretches from coast to coast to coast, the Raptors truly are Canada’s team.
