OG Anunoby
An easy way for Joe Cronin to navigate that thin line is by identifying a trade target who can both contribute next season and add to the Portland Trail Blazers’ promising young core. The Toronto Raptors might just happen to have one available in OG Anunoby.
According to Jake Fischer of Bleacher Report, the Raptors never really made OG Anunoby available, but nearly any player in the league can be had for the right price. Whether or not the Trail Blazers can turn this dream into a reality depends on just how high that price is exactly.
Fischer reported that sources around the league suspect that a package around the Trail Blazers’ No. 7 overall pick and Josh Hart wouldn’t be enough to swing the deal for OG Anunoby.
Of course, that could all be smoke, and a trade of that nature would actually make perfect sense for both teams involved. The Portland Trail Blazers land a big two-way wing that can instantly upgrade their defense and help Lillard lead a title chase.
