Raptors Rumour Report: Toronto likely to make trade before trade deadline per Lewenberg
"This has been a season of ups and downs for Toronto thus far, and although this is a group that hasn't been together very long, Toronto is reportedly highly likely to make a trade before this years trade deadline according to TSN Sports Josh Lewenberg. The unofficial start of trade season is here and the likelihood of the Raptors making a move between now and the Feb. 5 deadline is high. Their most glaring area of need is clear (a big), but are they looking to make a big splash.

"Toronto is looking to add front-court depth behind Jakob Poeltl, and they have even been linked to star front court players such as Anthony Davis. The potential front court depth pieces Toronto has been linked to are Daniel Gafford of the Dallas Mavericks, and Goga Bitazde of the Orlando Magic. With Poeltl looking like he's taken somewhat of a step back this season along with his injury issues, it seems that Toronto may look to address this with a trade."
Toronto has experienced an inconsistent season and is highly likely to pursue trades before the Feb. 5 deadline. The primary roster need is a frontcourt big to provide depth behind Jakob Poeltl. The team has been linked to Anthony Davis, Daniel Gafford, and Goga Bitazde. Poeltl's perceived regression and injury history have prompted trade consideration. Potential trade assets include Gradey Dick or Ochai Agbaji, though no serious offers have been reported. Toronto is also pursuing salary moves to get under the luxury tax and remains open to incremental additions or larger, riskier acquisitions.
