Sacramento Kings Land OG Anunoby
Toronto Raptors Receive: C Richaun Holmes, G Davion Mitchell, 2026 First-Round Pick (SAC), 2028 First-Round Pick (SAC)
Sacramento Kings Receive: F OG Anunoby
In fact, some would suggest that the Toronto Raptors have underperformed this season. By contrast, the 16-12 Sacramento Kings have exceeded expectations.
With that in mind, the Kings ought to lean into the present. This team is on an NBA-record 16-year playoff drought. If they decided to break that streak this year, we don’t think many of their fans would be complaining about the future.
Anunoby feels like the perfect player to help them do so. He’s a Defensive Player of the Year candidate this season, and an elite floor spacer to boot. He’d be a major upgrade in this team’s rotation.
As for the Raptors, they could actually use a rim-protecting big man like Holmes in the present. Still, this deal is about the future for them.
