This one time… Leo Rautins played one pro game in Toronto — and years later, it helped open the door to his role with the Raptors. In Episode 03, Leo and Paul Jones look back at Leo’s 1984 game at Maple Leaf Gardens against the Detroit Pistons and Isiah Thomas, and how that night became part of the story behind Leo joining the Toronto Raptors broadcast team. The conversation also touches on the early days of Raptors basketball, the original broadcast crew, and the impact of John Saunders in helping shape the voice and identity of the franchise from the very beginning. From Maple Leaf Gardens to the broadcast booth, this is a classic Toronto basketball story. #ThisOneTime #LeoRautins #PaulJones #TorontoRaptors #Raptors #NBA #NBAHistory #IsiahThomas #DetroitPistons #MapleLeafGardens #JohnSaunders #RaptorsHistory #BasketballStories #OldSchoolNBA #TorontoBasketball #NBABroadcasting #SportsMedia #BasketballHistory
