Washington Wizards Receive: G Fred VanVleet, F O.G. Anunoby
Toronto Raptors Receive: F/C Kristaps Porzingis, F Corey Kispert, 2025 First-Round Pick (WAS)
On the other hand, building an NBA team isn’t exactly like building a puzzle. After all, puzzle pieces, unlike human beings, do not have feelings.
In case you missed the memo, NBA players are human beings. They may fit on your roster in theory, but if they don’t like the way you’re using them, that fit might not matter.
For example, every team needs a 3-and-D wing or too. They’re pivotal for a contending team’s success. With that said, every player isn’t content to simply be a 3-and-D wing. It’s a limited role, and some players will inevitably feel that they have the potential to do more.
If recent rumors are any indication, O.G Anunoby feels exactly that way about his role in Toronto.

He’s one of the best 3-and-D wings in the league, but it’s been suggested that he’d like to take on more responsibility. That’s a big part of why he’s in this trade proposal.
In the event that Anunoby does want out, does this deal get the Raptors enough back for him and VanVleet?
