[Moore] Last summer, the asking price for Anunoby was a top-10 pick. With Anunoby having a Defensive Player of the Year caliber season and with the market so strongly in the pursuit of wings that can score and defend, the consensus is that his price might be higher.



>League sources say Toronto is active in trade talks and open to moving players, but the asking prices have been described as “insane,” “astronomical,” and “far-fetched.” (Shock of all shocks, teams place less value opposing teams’ players in negotiations than that team.)

Other notes:

>The Bucks are expected to seek help on the wing at some point in trades.

>Milwaukee was reportedly close to a deal with the Phoenix Suns for Jae Crowder, but the third team in the deal, the Houston Rockets, wanted more draft compensation. League sources said they would not be surprised to see another iteration of the deal go through before the deadline.

>However, multiple sources indicated this week that if a deal isn’t reached, it would finally prompt the Pacers to move on and deal Turner

    Wasn’t it reported that Portland offered the 7th pick and Raptors said no …

    What a player’s “trade value” is and what people will actually pay is two very different things.

    Astronomical, lol. Reminds me the lala land talk from Morey

    OG is great for any team, but no one will give up that high of a pick with this draft class coming in.

  5. awwwyeahaquaman

    Of course the value is high, I doubt they are trying to trade him at all. If they did though, it signals a rebuild pretty clearly, even more than any of the other trades might

    if he’s so good why don’t they just keep him?

  7. SnooChickens9571

    We’ll give you Payton Prichard and some of that spurs money.

    Every time a GM tries to negotiate, Masai is going to say “Did you see what Gobert got back?”

    OG is gonna be a free agent at the end of next season, and since he didn’t sign a max, he won’t be extending. Toronto is on the clock.

    OG Anunoby has only 1 more year remaining on his contract. Are teams willing to give him a $230M 5-year max? Because if they’re not, then they risk losing him for nothing after just 1 year.

  12. GoldenBoyRecords

    Are the Raptors giving OG a max extension when the time comes?

  13. lewiss38483

    Meanwhile Scottie Barnes on the other hand….

  14. grundlesmith

    The raps fo really working overtime to trade this guy

  15. zippinin

    Lmao a lot of people on r/kings think OG is some super under the radar unknown player and Toronto would totally give him up for a few 2nd rounders and some filler contracts

  16. BurzyGuerrero

    Raps don’t have to trade anybody so we won’t be gifting players.

    We have #6 odds with the current roster. Can just stay the course.

  17. GrayMerchantAsphodel

    He can’t score. All the raptors assets are trash.

  18. Raptorsthrowaway1

    He would be a significant upgrade on the wing for NOLA. 1 of Daniels / Trey / Herb + Filler + LAL’s 2023 pick?

    An overpay probably, but NOLA would get a significant upgrade on the wing adding a DPOY caliber player. Contention windows are never as open as long you want them to be. He only makes $17m this year so they don’t need to give up any core guy to get him.

    NOLA still has all their own picks and some bucks / lakers picks + swaps to make subsequent moves if required.

    Unfortunately for the Raptors, Tim Connelly can only make trade for the Wolves
