Although the Toronto Raptors ended a 10-game losing streak against Denver on Wednesday night, there was still a dark cloud looming as everyone watching the game wondered if this was Kyle Lowry’s final run with the team. Instead, it was long-time Raptor Norman Powell, who got traded to the Portland Trail Blazers for Gary Trent Jr. and Rodney Hood.
In just his third year, the 22-year-old Trent brings all the upside of a young, talented guard who has not even hit his prime yet.
