2. Toronto Raptors
Marc Gasol is a free agent this offseason and if he leaves, the Toronto Raptors would be without a center. It is unknown at this point if Gasol will remain in the NBA or decide to return to Spain to finish his career.
Either way, Gasol might not be in Toronto and the team will need a big man. This is where Drummond comes into play. Toronto is ready to compete next season and Drummond would go a long way in achieving that goal.
Gasol is more advanced from the three-point line but Drummond would give the Raptors an option of a true big man down low.
Drummond is already familiar with the Eastern Conference and would form a big of a big three with Kyle Lowry and Pascal Siakam. This is also if Fred VanVleet leaves in free agency.
The Raptors are currently in the midst of their championship window. They cannot afford to take a step back and that would happen if they do not improve down low.
