The Toronto Raptors have plenty of work to do this summer but with flexibility throughout the roster there are options available and moves to be made
Plenty of trade ideas, free agency questions, and draft queries in this week's mailbag. As always, if you have a question about the Toronto Raptors submit it during my weekly callout on Instagram makes it difficult to find a trade partner that doesn't have to give up a player as good or better than Brown in return. I'd expect a second-round pick or a prospect-like player in return for Brown if he's dealt.
What are the odds on the Raptors ever winning with Scottie Barnes on the roster? - @brandonspacejamminThey'll certainly win a ton of games and have multiple winning seasons with Barnes. I expect them to win playoff games and playoff rounds too. I think we will be too good for a high pick next year but too bad for a playoff appearance. What about you? - @scottie.museThe Raptors will probably have to tank toward the end of the season, make a trade to get worse, or get lucky in the lottery to get a high pick next year. That's how I would approach next season.
At this point, I wouldn't be making that kind of move if I was in charge of the Raptors. Toronto would have to give up too much talent just to make the salaries match in a trade and that would prohibit them from being good enough to contend with Towns moving forward. I wouldn't be making any trades for veteran players this summer if I were calling the shots.
