Frequently asked questions

What is the Toronto Raptors magic number right now?

The Toronto Raptors magic number is currently 83. Any combination of Toronto Raptors wins and losses by the team chasing them that adds up to 83 clinches a playoff spot — a top-6 seed, skipping the play-in.

Will the Toronto Raptors be in the play-in tournament?

Based on 10,000 simulations of the remaining schedule, the Toronto Raptors make the playoffs in about 53.4% of outcomes.

What is a magic number in basketball?

A magic number is the combined total of team wins and chasing-team losses that guarantees a top-6 seed in the conference — a playoff berth without the play-in tournament. Seeds 7 through 10 go to the play-in for the last two spots, so we also track a separate play-in magic number (a guaranteed top-10 finish).

When did the Toronto Raptors last make the playoffs?

The Toronto Raptors last made the NBA playoffs in 2025-26 — the most recently completed season.

When did the Toronto Raptors last win the NBA championship?

The Toronto Raptors have won the NBA championship once, in 2018-19.
