The Toronto Raptors WILL NOT be the main character of the NBA Trade Deadline! | Trade Season Primer

6:48 thank You for bringing this up. People getting a hard-on for late firsts when jak is top 10 in his class, is absurd to me. Its grass is greenerism at its finest

[@cuabyfbaby]

Raptors need to go for Goga Bitadze from Orlando. Dude is 25 years old averaging 12 pts, 10.4 rebs and 1.4 Blks in his last 7 games while averaging 20-25 mins 🤯we can invest in him while Jak takes him under his wing

[@frebur]

Too many teams are tanking. Its turning into a buyer's market. Ujiri never sells low even if he's looking at getting nothing. Who knows, maybe they'll even extend Bruce Brown. His value in free agency is probably around what KCP got plus inflation. That would be about what he's getting this season.

[@LockedOnRaptors]

there is absolutely no way he's getting KCP money in free agency. he got his current deal as an intentional overpay to give the pacers a big salary to trade, and there is even less cap space around the league this summer. Brown, he he gets back to playing, is maybe getting $10 mil a year in this cap climate. I'd be fine if the raps paid him that, but there's no way he's getting what KCP got in any scenario.

[@frebur]

@@LockedOnRaptors I don't know, Alex Caruso is looking at about $20 mil pa and he's the same type of player as Brown. I'm so used to being shocked by the contracts and there seems to be no end in sight. If the Raps can extend him for a couple years at the mid-level I think they should jump at it, provided he shows his previous form.

[@christopherjenkins5836]

Godfather offers ideally should be reserved for the Centre position. The Suns and Warriors are both interested in Kelly, he should get traded there as a favour after the last four years stuck in tanking Houston, Detroit, Utah and now Toronto

[@kickassproductions14]

Don't expect a godfather offer for Jak (if that's what you were implying) he's a solid player, and I'm sure good offers will be made, but the defensive regression is real, he'll never be able to shoot, he's also been very foul prone this year (2nd in the league last time I checked) when this team is actually contending Jak will not be on the team, he's merely a placeholder, a very solid one, but a placeholder nonetheless.

[@CHodgy]

Smells like trade speculation season..💩

[@kickassproductions14]

Brown, Boucher, and Davion should all be traded, they don't factor into the teams future plans. If a team offers a 1st for Kelly, I'd think about it, but I don't see that happening so I think he stays, as for Jak, I would trade him, but not for peanuts, it has to be a very solid offer, if no solid offers are made, keep Jak, trade talks for him can resume in the summer or at the 2026 deadline.

[@robdan4528]

I would consider moving Quickley for a player and draft picks and then keep Brown and resign him for a lower price next year. Brown & Shead can run the one spot next season, as Brown is a good defender and Barnes is going to be the point guard.
