A trade that can make the Grizzlies title favorites

Laying out the trade for the Grizzlies and Raptors

While the Toronto Raptors have plenty of intriguing players they could decide to trade for the right offer, OG Anunoby is the player who should most entice the Memphis Grizzlies. They could build a deal with a combination of players and picks to try and convince Toronto to make a move. This deal, tossed out by NBA trade site Fanspo, could do the trick.

The Toronto Raptors would get back an intriguing young forward in David Roddy, the expiring contract of Danny Green, and a trio of first-round picks. That’s a lot for a player in Anunoby who isn’t an on-ball shot creator or elite rim protector; none of the picks are likely to be premium selections, but the volume here may be enough to entice Toronto.

Green would return to the Raptors with the possibility of signing an extension or re-signing this summer, or perhaps the Raptors move fast enough to make this a larger deal with Green routing to another contender for assets. There will be a bidding war for Anunoby if he is made available, and plenty of teams will go after him, but this isn’t an unreasonable deal for them to make.
