Why The Toronto Raptors Do The Deal 

This is a risky trade for the Raptors. They could walk away from it with nothing. 

After all, Wood is due for unrestricted free agency this summer. If walks, the Raptors are left with a pick swap that may never convey in exchange for Trent Jr. 

That’s why the swap conveys so distantly. It gives the Raptors time to build a better team than Dallas. Moreover, it gives them time to trade those swap rights if the opportunity presents itself. 

Finally, Wood makes for a sensible addition here. He scratches the Raptors’ itch for both a big man and shooting.
