“Rattles we lead people!” » said Napoleon I when creating the Legion of Honor.
More than two centuries later, the formula has retained its full meaning. Symbolic trophies multiply in NBA locker rooms: belts and chains now they are used to reward hard work and combativeness.
Since joining the Raptors, Darko Rajaković has thus instituted a ceremony where he gives the chain to the player or staff member who best embodies the state of mind desired by the team.
“He is not necessarily the best player. We just want to emphasize the contribution to our culture and identity”explained the coach, the case could also be assigned to the assistant who advised to challenge the correct referee’s decision. “The idea is to promote our culture, our identity and what we want to do. I thought it was a great way to celebrate a team, a person, a contribution.”
For the opening match against the HawksIt is RJ Barrett (25 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists) who was in the spotlight. But the extremely enthusiastic Darko Rajaković had one more thing to share.
This one is new, and it is the Cobra scepter intended for a player who changed the match with his energy and defensive intensity. And for this first success of the campaign, it is Broken Black who could wear it.
