"Bleacher Report proposes that the Raptors go after Trey Murphy III, who just played a strong game against them, Nickeil Alexander-Walker, and Michael Porter Jr. All three are good 3-point shooters and, notably, not bigs, which is a position the Raptors have been looking to upgrade."
"The lack of Raptors representation suggests that there aren't many players on the roster who other teams would be really eager to trade for. That could limit the Raptors' options on the trade market in the offseason."
"The Raptors have proven that they have several issues that need to be addressed. They cannot beat good teams, their already middling offense tends to fall apart in the fourth quarter, and they struggle to hit threes, to name a few issues."
The Raptors should pursue three-point shooting upgrades through trades, with targets including Trey Murphy III, Nickeil Alexander-Walker, and Michael Porter Jr. However, the team faces significant trade market constraints, as only two Raptors players—Gradey Dick and Collin Murray-Boyles—appear on other teams' trade target lists. This limited representation suggests other franchises lack strong interest in Toronto's roster, potentially restricting the Raptors' negotiating power. The team must address multiple roster issues including poor performance against quality opponents, fourth-quarter offensive breakdowns, and three-point shooting deficiencies. After remaining largely inactive at the trade deadline, the Raptors need offseason roster adjustments around core players Scottie Barnes and Brandon Ingram to improve playoff positioning.
