The 2011–12 Toronto Raptors season was the 17th season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA). The season start was delayed, and the season schedule was compressed due to the 2011 NBA lockout. The Raptors finished the season with a 23–43 record and did not make it to the playoffs.
One of the biggest lowlights of the season was dropping the season series against the eventual all-time NBA worst 7-59 Charlotte Bobcats.
Key dates June 23: The 2011 NBA draft took place at Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey. December 26: Toronto started the regular season with a win against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
