NBA Trades: 10 Pascal Siakam deals the Raptors must consider
By Cal Durrett
The Toronto Raptors are just a couple of months away from the start of the NBA regular season, but it is unclear what their team will look like. The Raptors appear open to trading star Pascal Siakam as well as OG Anunoby, and if they do, then that would signal a complete rebuild.
Several teams have been linked to both players and if one is moved, then the other could soon change teams as well. Of the two players, Siakam appears to be the most likely Raptor to be dealt, given his trade value and the fact that he is on an expiring contract.
Toronto could technically extend him, but keeping him could be costly, especially if he makes All-NBA next season, allowing him to qualify for a super-max contract. Rather than risk having to pay him more than $300 million or having him leave in unrestricted free agency, they may instead seek to offload him to jumpstart their rebuild. Now, let’s take a look at ten trades for Siakam that the Raptors must consider.
