[7]
[8]
[9] Despite the injury, Carter averaged 24.7 points, 5.2 rebounds and 1.5 steals per game, and was still voted to play in the
2002 NBA All-Star Game , his third consecutive All-Star selection, but did not play due to his knee injury.
[10]
[11]
[12] The Raptors played solid basketball with a 29β21 record at the All-Star break.
[13] However, the team then suffered a 13-game losing streak, losing 17 of their next 18 games.
[14]
[15] They would then post a nine-game winning streak between March and April,
[16] winning 12 of their final 14 games of the season.
[17]
Despite losing Carter for the rest of the season and the playoffs, the Raptors finished with a 42β40 record, and finished third place in the Central Division, which allowed them to clinch a
playoff spot,
[18] behind the efforts of their other team captain
Antonio Davis , who averaged 14.5 points, 9.6 rebounds and 1.1 blocks per game. In addition, second-year forward
Morris Peterson showed improvement averaging 14.0 points per game, while
Alvin Williams provided the team with 11.8 points, 5.7 assists and 1.6 steals per game,
Keon Clark contributed 11.3 points, 7.4 rebounds and 1.5 blocks per game, and Olajuwon provided with 7.1 points, 6.0 rebounds and 1.5 blocks per game.
[19] Toronto's season ended in the Eastern Conference First Round with a defeat to the
Detroit Pistons in five hard-fought games.
[20]
[21]
[22]
[23]
Following the season, Olajuwon retired after eighteen seasons in the NBA.
[24]
[25]
[26] Meanwhile,
Chris Childs re-signed as a free agent with his former team, the
New Jersey Nets ,
[27] while Clark signed with the
Sacramento Kings ,
[28]
Tracy Murray was traded to the
Los Angeles Lakers ,
[29] and three-point specialist
