This should give raptors fans some hope!
“We have potentially 3 picks in this draft. We have cap flexibility, we have tradable contracts, there’s a lot of things we need to get right. It’s not going to be 1-2 big moves.. 5-10 moves”
This has got to be one of the most exciting raptors teams. Having the young guys RJ and IQ running the show is so fun to watch along with all the young talent around them. Truly special what the raptors have right now. #goraps
@AaronDavidson36 It is very interesting to see what the raptors can do from now until the trade deadline and especially on draft day considering they do not want to take more then 1 pick in the first round. Makes it interesting because they could have 3 🙀🙀
Here's my take on all of these recent trades. The Raptors ship off two very good players who are on expiring contracts that one of them wouldn't have resigned here. These were the perfect moves for the Raptors with the way the timeline of the team is going.
@AaronDavidson36 Agreed. Issue is with this draft is its reported to be a very weak class. With Masai I am not concerned. Although they do believe to be looking to potentially moving picks for young players. Example: Brown and a first for young talent + salary filler.
Newly acquired Forward in the Siakam trade Jordan Nwora is an absolute bucket. If the Raptors take the time and develop this guy he can really be something special. He's a good shooter with wicked bounce, he just needs minutes and a HC to believe in him. I'm all in on Nwora.
Part 2: Good young players and first round picks is the way to go. This team will really see what they have with IQ, RJ and Scottie. This team will lose a lot of games but with those 3 running the show for the rest of this year and the future. This will be fun and I am excited!
