Portland Trail Blazers Receive: F OG Anunoby, G/F Gary Trent Jr., F/C Chris Boucher, F/C Precious Achiuwa, 2026 First-Round Pick (TOR), 2028 First-Round Pick (TOR), 2030 First-Round Pick (TOR) 
Toronto Raptors Receive: G Damian Lillard 

In all likelihood, the trade the Blazers make will reflect the direction they wish to take in the future. Would this team like to start over from scratch?

There is a dilemma that every team faces when their best player requests a trade from them. If the Blazers want to trade Lillard for an equal player, they will not do it.

In the NBA, there are very few players who are as good as Lillard, and none of them will be available to play for the Blazers in the playoffs.
