The Toronto Raptors are going to be an interesting team to watch this offseason after missing the NBA playoffs in 2020-21. For starters, Kyle Lowry is an unrestricted free agent this summer, and most people assume that he will be signing elsewhere when it’s all said and done.
Besides the possible departure of Lowry, the Raptors could make other alterations to the roster, which could include a trade involving Pascal Siakam.
Ever since this year’s NBA trade deadline, Siakam has been a popular name in NBA trade rumors. However, Toronto hasn’t shown much interest in moving on from the former first-round pick in the 2016 NBA Draft.
