The NBA Trade Deadline is just over a week away, on February 6th, and the Toronto Raptors are starting to tip-toe into the trade waters. A different approach to last season, when they canon-balled into the trade waters.
Toronto were (mostly) sellers in 2024 — letting go of OG Anunoby and Pascal Siakam. Yet, the also acquired RJ Barrett, Immanuel Quickley, Bruce Brown, Ochai Agbaji, Kelly Olynyk, and number of other assets that were either picks (now rookies), or let go. So, they were actually kind of buyers last season. So the official rebuild began (it was already happening as much as some were in denial).
