Why The Toronto Raptors Do The Deal 

The Raptors do this deal with two factors in mind: their current roster construction and their future. 

In terms of the current roster, they could badly use a player like Bamba.

Bamba could be their long-term starting big man. Alternatively, if the Raptors prefer to stick with wing-based arrangements that see Siakam at the 5, they could do that too.
