OG Anunoby
Unlike the Jazz, the Toronto Raptors can be satisfied with their 2021-22 season. After all, their expectations heading into the year were lower. A first-round exit is an acceptable ending for the team that rostered the Rookie of the Year.
That doesn’t mean every player on the team is satisfied.
Lately, some rumors suggest that OG Anunoby would like a bigger slice of the offensive pie. Scottie Barnes’ emergence in 2021-22 took the ball out of his hands to some extent. Could the 24-year-old wing force his way out of town?
He’d surely have suitors. On the other hand, the Raptors value him highly. Furthermore, Barnes himself took to social media to dismiss the rumors. In this case, there appears to be more smoke than actual fire.

The Raptors might trade OG Anunoby if someone offers a significant package. We suspect that any return they’d deem acceptable in exchange for him would be too cost-prohibitive. Look for him to suit up in the Great White North in 2022-23.
Prediction: OG Anunoby stays in Toronto
