The Toronto Raptors are not contenders in the Eastern Conference like they have been in previous years. Last season began their rebuild and after another lackluster start, the front office could decide to completely blow it up.
This is why we have seen names like Pascal Siakam in trade rumors. Trent Jr. seems like an easy one to move because of his contract situation and ability on the office event.
Trent Jr.’s coring took a huge step forward when he joined the Raptors, especially from three-point range. He has the type of jump shot that would excel in Los Angeles because of the open space on the perimeter.
