Correcting earlier tweet (knew Fred had 54, but I had Jordan’s 55 on my mind):
Raptors scoring record:
Fred VanVleet 54
Pascal Siakam 52
DeMar DeRozan 52
Vince Carter 51
Terrence Ross 51
Charlie Villanueva/Carter 48
Siakam scores the second-most road points by a Raptor too. – 10:10 PM

More on this storyline
In recent years, NBA players have become more transparent with their mental health issues. They have been using their stories of pain and healing to help others. Chicago Bulls guard DeMar DeRozan spoke with Sierra Health Foundation president and CEO Chet Hewitt about the importance of addressing mental health issues in youth. -via Los Angeles Sentinel / December 22, 2022
To further his mental health advocacy, DeRozan is working on a digital series, “Dinners with DeMar.” The series is made up of conversations with the aim to eliminate the stigma of mental illness. “I got a lot of close friends in my profession,” DeRozan said. “The conversations that we have behind closed doors, I walk away from them sometimes saying “I wish this was captured to be able to inspire.”” -via Los Angeles Sentinel / December 22, 2022
