Watanabe contributed 26 points (11-20 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 13 rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 37 minutes during Sunday's 144-99 loss to the Cavaliers.
Watanabe was in the starting lineup for the first time this season since the Raptors were shorthanded due to the league's health and safety protocols. He played a season-high 37 minutes in the loss and scored in double figures for the third time in the last four games. Across that span, the 27-year-old has also posted two double-doubles.
