9) DeRozan Becomes All-Time Leading Scorer

This moment went under the radar a bit, which is fitting when you consider how DeRozan carries himself, but the Raptors very quietly crowned a new all-time leading scorer on December 29th when DeRozan drained a pull-up jumper to surpass Chris Bosh and push his career points total to 10,276 points.

After signing a long-term deal with the Raptors in the offseason, it was only a matter of time until DDR reigned supreme atop the Raptors all-time points list, which might have sucked the excitement out of this moment for some fans, but despite the lack of hype around this feat, it was still a big moment for the Raptors in 2016.
