Why The Toronto Raptors Do The Deal
As far as the Raptors are concerned, we will say that they certainly have a style of their own.
It is no secret that this team loves big, ball-handling wings. In addition to Siakam, they also feature Scottie Barnes and O.G. Anunoby in their starting lineups, and even Delanto Banton fits that description.
The Raptors may be acquiring their future point guard of the future in this deal, as Josh Giddey has also looked like a blossoming star during the first half of the season.
However, that’s not the only thing they’re gaining in this deal. Dort is an outstanding perimeter defender – and he’s a Canadian at that.
