Why The Toronto Raptors Do The Deal
The Raptors have a vision for the future, and it’s not hard to picture it without VanVleet.
After all, this team has mostly been building around big, playmaking wings. VanVleet doesn’t meet the criteria. If anything, he’s an undersized guard.
On the other hand, Morris has decent positional size. He’s also a high feel guard who consistently makes good decisions. Still, he’s not really the centerpiece of this deal for Toronto.
That would be Washington’s unprotected first-rounder. That’s about as valuable of an asset as the Raptors are going to get for VanVleet.
