OG Anunoby said Raptors teammates hit him up after his game-winner in Game 4, and tells how it felt scoring it.
You think his fellow cyborg Kawhi hit him up?
Congratulatory Beep boop.

Congrats ogugua well deserved
I wonder if Patrick Ewing DM’ed him
“are you excited?” “yes. i am excited. are you also excited?” “yes. okay. bye.”
Turns out they’re just Oblivion NPCs
He’s a fun guy
They spoke via Airdrop
probably gave him a few trees to plant to honor the tip in
Anne Hathaway slid into his dms too
How can one man be so fortunate?
Stunt on these hoes my sweet prince
I would run through a wall if Anne Hathaway sent me this text
So mad we can’t add the Dexter lab meme on this sub.
We miss you too OG.
“My” raptors teammates 🥹
Miss him on the Raptors but glad to see him balling out
Crazy kawhi and him were teammates. Perimeter defense must’ve been wild to see
We called them Wingstop for that one glorious season
That’s gotta be up there in terms of duo names along with Twin Towers lmao
Wingstop was first used for Kawhi & Danny Green when they were on the Spurs, I don’t remember it being used for OG & Kawhi but I’m not really tapped in to Raptors nicknames to say for sure but I’m sure about Danny & Kawhi using it first
Well we had DG too so 🤷♂️
Yeah, I didn’t say anything about that I just said I don’t remember it used for Kawhi & OG, only that it was for Danny & Kawhi who started using it when they were on the Spurs
we say it for OG & Mikal bridges now
I never heard it either, I don’t even think we had Wingstop in Canada at the time so that would be a weird nickname
think that dude is just doing the classic lie on the internet move
Bro and Siakam too. I know he’s not the same kind of defender as Kawhi and OG but they really had a squad of strong, long athletes on the perimeter
Our defensive capabilities were ridiculous. Green, Lowry, Gasol, Ibaka, VanVleet were all plus defenders
I didn’t really think it at the time but in retrospect that Raptors squad was absolutely fucking loaded.
I’ve been saying it for a while now. Every year, that squad looks better and better in retrospect
(and that was without OG for the playoffs!)
It’s like rewatching an old movie full of stars before any of them became big.
well also with some old stars who were past their peak (Gasol, Ibaka, Lin even )
The Toronto Black Hawk Downs
Bros woulda repeated if Kawhi stayed
Even Norman Powell who was like the 10th man was an all star this past year
Absolute nasty line up in retrospect jesus
What’s wild is that Danny Green felt a little bit like just a throw in in the Kawhi/Demar trade. Like he was good but it felt like he was included mostly as salary filler but then he ends up being so important for the team
Ya and we had Marc Gasol and Serge Ibaka protecting the paint, and Lowry, Van Vleet, Danny Green and Norm Powell guarding on the perimeter. Every one of them could defend
and Danny Green who was arguably the 2nd or 3rd best defender after Kawahi, oh and Serge Ibaka and Marc gasol, what the actual fuck was that team in retrospect
Lowry was also one of the best guard defenders in the league, particularly in defending larger players.
There’s a reason they were able to pioneer The Wall against Giannis
crazy they won without him
damn bro played in Toronto for so long his accent sounds Canadian
Nyeah eh.
im so glad i get to see my boy get acclaim like this. miss him every day
‘19 raptors didn’t even have OG for the entire playoffs, and posters want to say they are the worst championship team in the past 10 years.
People were also saying how us missing OG in the playoffs wasn’t that impactful lol
Only Bleacher Report says that for bait.
Now obviously not everyone was in their prime, but that Raptors team had a rotation of Lowry, Danny Green, OG* (DNP), Kawhi, Siakam, Gasol, Ibaka, Fred VV, and Normal Powell.
In terms of accolades they had or would receive: Lowry, Kawhi, Siakam, Gasol, Fred, and Norm all made All Star. Kawhi and Marc were DPOYs. Serge, DG, and OG all made defensive teams.
The team was ridiculously stacked.
In hindsight sight they definitely aren’t but who would be?
This reminds me to tell everyone that sees this to check out CJ Miles social media channels. Talk about a gifted/talented person
This reminds me to tell everyone that sees this to check out Darren Watkins Jr social media channels. Talk about a gifted/talented person
Knicks legend Darren Watkins Jr
Which CJ Miles?
Valid question since both had millions of young men watching in their prime
He was the Canadian Go-Daddy rep during the Raps championship season.
Thanks for the completely organic and not at all suspicious recommendation bro, I’m sure CJ Miles himself didn’t type this
Also check out Kevin Durant some say he’s the GOAT
I legit just saw a reel of CJ and OG talking after the game and checked out his IG to see he has become a professional photographer
When he played for the Raptors the Raptors play-by-play guy Matt Devlin would call him “CJ Kilometres”.
He’s a raptor for life.
I suspect that “Don Larsen’s perfect game” is going to a mysterious reference for many
I thought it was an odd reference and I’m like a 30 year baseball fan at this point compared to like 10 years of basketball. Even among Yankees moments, I would probably say things like Jeter’s flip to home plate, or the 90s Dynasty which is a blur of triumphant moments, or maybe the Reggie Jackson home runs, or David Wells/David Cone perfect games. Mariano’s final game pitched. Aaron Boone home run. Just something this generation experienced directly. Reggie Jackson is admittedly a long way back now but I think many old heads who are fans saw that or heard about it from someone who did.
Larsen’s WS perfect game is legit but at that point you’re getting into history this generation hasn’t experienced and might as well say Lou Gehrig.
“Did someone famous hit you up” I hate this question and mentality.
Anunoby is an insanely clutch performer. Shame he was injured for the 2019 run but glad he got a ring for it.
The bubble shot against the Celtics is legendary but he’s exceeded it with his clutch shots this year.
Wish the raps could’ve made it work. Great to see former raps like Siakim and OG go on to great playoff careers. If the team chemistry wouldn’t so messed up they could’ve kept the team together and been very scary
How can you not like this guy? So humble and down to earth, even after dropping 2 historic plays back to back. What a great dude.
Thank you for overshadowing the Tacko Fall shot at least
Lol what a game and what a series that was.
“Whats it like feeling like Kawhi?”
my humble king
Thought this was VladTV for a minute
Can’t spell DOG without OG
Can’t spell GOD without OG
Can’t spell GOAT without OG.
Our sweet Prince. Go win another one, OG.
damn OG calm down
OG watched The Bounce by Kawhi and was like imma top that.
I want one of these jerseys they wear after the games.
“It’s cool”
John Fucking Lakeman up there
Skill points all minmaxed into on the floor talent.
These guys are hard not to like, shame the Knicks fans are not as chill… Down vote all you want
Would’ve thought we would’ve felt some kinship with Philly fans on how crazy our fans get . You guys are literally famous for throwing batteries and eating horse shit off the ground. I forgot this is Reddit and you’re probably a dweeb irl
Preach
Also rich of you calling me that when you’re here posting on gaming subs. You’re probably an incel in your parents basement
He’s in your head 😭
I’m not a dweeb, but whatever mate. I don’t think Philly fans have intentionally hurt other individuals during celebrations like has happened in NYC. At least win something first
you sure, boss?
Two shootings, a stabbing and a car crash that injured multiple pedestrians were also among several “significant” incidents reported amid the NFC championship celebrations, police said.
touché
Let’s see what city gets the honors if Knicks finish it off
