"For several weeks now, the rumor mill has been buzzing with key NBA names linked to the Toronto Raptors as potential targets. For example, before Trae Young headed to the Wizards, his name was floating around Toronto's radar. Other guards like LaMelo Ball and Ja Morant were also supposedly in the mix, along with big men targets such as Anthony Davis and Domantas Sabonis."
"The rationale behind many of these moves makes sense, especially when it comes to bolstering star power on the roster. Likewise, they could also help address the ongoing issues with the team's overall balance, like improving the frontcourt and finding a more refined point guard to replace Immanuel Quickley. Although, to be fair, Quickley's recent play might put a damper on that idea."
"There is no pressure regarding the trade deadline or his [Bobby Webster's] contract. And he is 100 per cent aware of that. The team is moving in the right direction and I'm convinced that Bobby will make the right moves, at the right time, to make us better. This team under Bobby's direction, will contend for championships."
For several weeks rumors linked high-profile NBA players — including Trae Young, LaMelo Ball, Ja Morant, Anthony Davis and Domantas Sabonis — as trade targets for the Toronto Raptors. Those targets aimed to add star power, shore up the frontcourt and find a more refined point guard to replace Immanuel Quickley, though Quickley's recent play complicates that need. Reports suggested GM Bobby Webster faced win-now pressure after the Brandon Ingram trade last February. MLSE president Keith Pelley said there is no pressure over the trade deadline or Webster's contract and expressed confidence that Webster will make the right moves to contend for championships.
