The Toronto Raptors might need to go big game hunting in free agency, as the contract offers that Fred VanVleet is receiving might make it difficult for the longtime Raptors point guard to return for the next few seasons. Could D’Angelo Russell come to town as a potential replacement?
With the Lakers potentially eyeing another big splash in free agency, the odds of Russell returning following a poor postseason showing are lower than they ever have been. While he will cost a pretty penny, he is still more cost-effective than VanVleet while bringing an efficient 3-point shot to the table.
