NBA Trade Deadline bold prediction No. 2: The Toronto Raptors will aggressively pursue a big name
As one of the hottest teams in the Eastern Conference right now, the Toronto Raptors are one team to watch as the NBA Trade Deadline quickly approaches. Currently, the Raptors are 28-23 and have beaten the top teams in the East.
It’s pretty clear; they can hang with the best in the East. Perhaps this past week was good enough to get the front office on board with being buyers at the deadline. I expect the Raptors to be aggressive at the deadline and target a big name.
The Raptors are in a place where if they add a big name they could be one of the most dangerous teams heading into the push for the playoffs.
