What better way to celebrate the year anniversary of the O.G. Anunoby, RJ Barrett, Immanuel Quickley trade than to preview this upcoming trade season. Last December 30th, the Raptors kicked off trades by making an early deal that sent the NBA faithful into a frenzy. A year later, it seems to have worked out for both sides.
O.G. Anunoby is deservedly getting his flowers as a defensive powerhouse in New York, while RJ Barrett is playing the best hoops of his life in Toronto, 23.4 points, 6.8 rebounds, and 6.2 assists per game this year. While Immanuel Quickley has not been healthy for long enough to fully judge his potential as a Raptor, the team bet on him by offering him a huge deal to sign in the summer.
