Less than a week ago, the Toronto Raptors were reportedly exploring the possibility of trade talks with the Washington Wizards for Bradley Beal. On Sunday, both teams will go head-to-head.
At this point, it appears those talks never manifested into much, but there’s a lot to take away from these reports about where the Wizards see themselves as well as Beal’s overall value.
According to Sean Deveney of Sporting News, the Wizards are demanding two players and two draft picks from the Raptors for their All-Star. The Raptors would likely send out both Pascal Siakam and OG Anunoby, who make up part of Toronto’s young core.
