Dwane Casey has had 50 players since taking over as Toronto’s coach in 2011-12. Only one has been along for the whole ride, and that one helped get Casey a milestone win on Sunday. Backed by 15 points from DeMar DeRozan, Casey got his franchise-record 157th win as coach of the Raptors with a 106-87 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks.

After the game, Casey paid special tribute to DeRozan, who has been with Casey since he inherited a last-place Atlantic Division team. Casey has improved the club’s record in each of the four seasons since, and Toronto has won back-to-back division titles the past two years.
