The Toronto Raptors have one of the most talented rosters in the NBA. No, they’re not the Golden State Warriors; no one is. But when comparing against the other 29 teams, Toronto can match any of them. With that talent, comes a lot of trade value.
Trade value is the most important component. However, there are many more elements which come into play when determining a players trade value; long-term potential, salary cost, salary length and plenty of other elements also factor in.
How much each aspect matters, depends on what team you’re dealing with. What’s important to the Denver Nuggets is not important to the Atlanta Hawks.
