Toronto Raptors & Utah Jazz Had Trade Discussions Surrounding Bruce Brown! Otto Porter To Celtics?

What’s up basketball fans welcome to the vat report it’s time to talk about the Toronto Raptors because there has been a potential Bruce Brown trade deal discussed amongst a new team this was a mystery team that really came out of nowhere and I will be breaking the

Details down of that in today’s video as well as discussing some of the other trade rumors related to the chono Raptor so if you’re ready to watch make sure to hit the Subscribe button and with that being said let’s let’s get into today’s video now this was being reported by

Basketball on X that the Jazz have discussed a framework with the Raptors that would bring Brown to Utah in return for Kelly oin and oai abaji this was according to Jake L Fisher draft Capital could be part of that conversation remains to be seen now the biggest

Question you have to ask yourself here before we even get to the trade discussions or a potential trade between the two teams is why would a team like the Utah Jazz want to trade someone like an oay abaji who’s on a really good contract he’s only 23 years old so

You’ve got to question someone like Danny Ang’s motive we know a lot of teams are interested in Kelly o Linux so could this be a possible tactic in trade talks that maybe that teams aren’t willing to give up possibly what Danny Ang is seeking and perhaps from a jazz

Point of view why would they want to take on Bruce Brown’s contract he’s you know a 27 years old the Jazz although they’re playing really well this season they’re not trying to win the championship so why would they want to take on a contract like his and in

Return give up a young player so you’ve got to definitely question Danny Ang’s motives but from a Raptor’s point of view this would be an excellent excellent get I mean Kelly oen is an amazing player I’ll talk to talk about him in just a second but oay baji so I

Going to quickly take a look at the Jazz’s salary cap situation here and you’ve got to understand that this obviously saves the Raptors a little bit of money you see Kelly Ock 32 years old making $12.1 million he’s heading into free agency and then you got someone

Like OA who’s on a really good contract 23 years old again only making 4.1 $1 million so in total that equates to about $16.2 million and Bruce Brown is making about $22 million so you’ve got to you definitely you look at this from a Raptor’s point of view and you’re you

Know absolutely excited now I do want to quickly say that he did say there could be draft compensation from who I don’t know you know if the jazs are giving up a second round pick that would be great for the Raptors if the Raptors however

Are giving up any sort of picks even if it’s a second round pick I don’t think that’s a great idea for a team that is in the Raptor’s position that has given up so many first round picks second round picks in the past in the next

Excuse me the last three four years this is not a great idea now in terms of O I do want to touch on him real quick here because he is a very intriguing player now taking a look at oio Stats here overall he’s had a roller coaster of you

Know a couple of Seasons a year and a half in the NBA his rookie season started out great you know 20 minutes per game shot the three-point ball respectable as a rookie I wouldn’t say great free throw percentage was great at 81% and also 7.9 points in 20 minutes as

A rookie isn’t bad however this season 19 minutes his points have gone down 5.4 points his field go has gone down to 42.6% a little bit and in terms of his three-point shot that’s taking a little bit of a dip as well but he’s also taking less threes so naturally you

Should be hitting your threes at a higher rate if you’re taking less threes but even in terms of field goal attempts and his minutes so you’ve got to question what is going on with o Chaya has he just fallen out of rotation is there potentially something that the

Jazz see that don’t really Intrigue them about OA again I do want to remind people I’m very excited if a deal like this would happen from a Raptor’s point of view but you’ve also got to be really cautious remember when precious got treated to the Tonto Raptors we’ve all

Got super excited and when we realize precious’s weakness then we ultimately realize that he definitely has his limitations although he was this young player you know that we were super excited about as amazing athleticism we have to proceed with caution and I’m not saying you can’t get excited but OA is a

Really good player but you’ve got to question Danny age of all people you know he does not give up bad deals he’s one that gets the best deals done for MSI Jan as much criticism he receives from other fan bases even in his own fan base about how much his asking price is

Danny a is that much worse so it really makes you question what his motives are behind this deal I mean is he planning on keeping Bruce down until next season potentially flipping him for something more who knows you know who knows so it’ll be interesting but in terms of oai

I quickly do want to touch up upon him just one more time here I didn’t talk about his age or I did quickly touch upon his age he’s only 23 years old but he’s a shooting guard 65 25 pounds good frame he’s also got a 610 Wings span

Which is amazing he’s also a super athletic guard which is something the Raptors need you know for 65 when you talk about guys that are 65 you look at Gary Trent Jr he plays much smaller than his size and although he can dunk he doesn’t SAR for massive dunks and noia

Does exactly that he’s someone that can make good reads off defenses on the offensive side he gets you know he gets these Cuts behind players when they’re not paying attention and super athletic player that you can easily throw the ball out for Ali Hoops for so again

Really really nice get if the Raptors do get him but you’ve got to uh you definitely got to question a little bit of motive from dannie Angel side let’s quickly talk about Kelly oen before we move on to other trade rumors here now Kelly oen um this was a player that a

Lot of raptors found want 611 240 PBS he’s 32 years old so yes he doesn’t exactly fit their timeline but the reason the Raptors acquire someone like a Kelly o linic is because if you do draft to Center in let’s say this year’s draft class centers will take some time

To develop so in the meantime you have Kelly as a backup center he’s a little bit bigger than jont Porter for those who may suggest so I I think him and jonte can realistically play together you know I’ll get to that in just a moment but just to quickly touch upon

His statistics and why he’s such an intriguing player for the Raptors three-point percentage is the main reason a floor is facing big in today’s NBA is a luxury to have and someone like a Kelly would be excellent he’s a smart player on defense I wouldn’t say he’s an

Amazing Defender but he’s a smart Defender you know he’s got limitations to his game but he plays within his game a great role player and the Raptors haven’t had a good role player in quite some time again three-point percentage this season 42% start on only 1.7 attempts per game but the last few

Seasons he shot you know three attempts and he’s been shooting respectable 39% 33% the previous season isn’t that great but he’s slowly improving you know so um again a good free throw shooter which is excellent for the Raptors um because obviously you know yakob can’t shoot his

Free throws so you can play Kelly in late game situations in terms of rebounding he’s a decent rebounder but look at that assist column and this goes exactly hand inand with what the Raptors are doing is moving the ball Kelly is an excellent passer for a big man and he’s

Averaging eight point one points per game this season so again I do want to quickly touch upon the fact that he could give the Raptors a different type of Center again this isn’t a shot at jonte I feel like jont is more fitted at the power forward position and 611 Kelly

Oen does provide a little bit more size than jont and they can realistically play together you know so the Raptors could potentially have a bench of Kelly lenck jont Porter o Chaya then you got gredy dick and for the time being Dennis you know so it could be in very

Fascinating bench for the Raptors they haven’t had quite quite a while since they’ve had you know good role play in terms of coming off the bench but also just when you think of floor spacing bigs Kelly would be excellent and it’s a good insurance for yaka perto

As well and it gives you a different type of centers to play in different types of matchups so again he’s although he’s a free agent the Raptors will definitely have first dibs trying to resign him for at least two years you know give him a two-year window he can

Be a serviceable big and he’s a great floor spacer so I’m excited about this but let’s talk about some of the other trade rumors that came out today about the Tonto Raptors so this rumor came out earlier today again shout out to basketball and X were reporting that the

Knicks remain a likely landing spot per Bruce Brown per Michael Grange the sticking point is that the Knicks are trying to get the deal done by using one of two first- round picks they have for the upcoming draft Toronto is holding out for the future Knicks first round

Pick but that’s a commodity for the Knicks are loow toart with as they are trying to keep their powder powder dry should they have an opportunity in the offseason to trade for Star AKA let’s be honest Donovan Mitchell is it type of star that they’d want to trade for but

If I’m the chono Raptors you have to understand you know what people are going to say while you’re getting a first- round pick for Bruce Brown why not do this deal that’s a great deal that’s exactly what the Raptors were looking for the only one issue this draft class isn’t considered the

Stronger strongest not by my opinion by many experts who are staying this but also just considering how many picks the Raptors already have they currently have four they could have up to four picks this draft class again they have Detroit’s first or excuse me second round pick they also have Indiana’s

First round pick they have the worst of OKC and LA Clippers and the way the Clippers are playing that’s essentially going to be a Pro probably seems like a early second round pick as well right so those teams are playing great and then there’s their own pick as well if it’s

Top six protected they might end up keeping it so again you have to understand from a Raptor’s point of view it’s not that they don’t want a first round pick they already have way too many you don’t want to bring in four or five rookies and Messi has already

Stated he does not plan on bringing four rookies in next season that’s a huge gamble for obvious reasons so we’ll see what happens if the Knicks actually budge and give us give the Raptors what they want but let’s move on to our next trade rumor here and this was being

Reported that Toronto Raptors forward Auto Porter Jr and Brooklyn Nets guard Lonnie Walker are on the Boston Celtics radar now at this point I’m going to be very very honest about you know Auto Porter Jr he doesn’t play often but he’s a good he’s a really good role player

And these are the type of players that you want if you’re the top three team in either conference and you’re aiming to look to win a championship Auto poter is perfect for coming in for 105 minutes he can play defense he can shoot some he can shoot some three-point balls as well

Great three-point shooter and he provides a lot of size that’s what a lot of teams seem to get so I can see him being an excellent get for the Boston Celtics in terms of what you could realistically ask for it it definitely have to be a second round pick again if

I’m the Raptors I don’t want this season heck give me a 2029 second round pick you know but at the end of the day Auto poter is going to walk in free agency the Raptors are bringing him back and a second round pick if you’re able to get

That that’s an excellent get the Raptor shouldn’t be greedy too much when it comes to trading Auto Porter Jr and there they’re asking prices should be straightforward and simple a good first or excuse me a good second round pick or a reasonable second round pick should be

A decent return for the Raptor so we’ll see what happens a lot of rumors surrounding the Toronto Raptors and we’ll see what happens again I’m going to hold off a trivia questions just for a while guys because I may just be coming up with a lot of videos depending

On how maybe potentially trades going down or something happening so I’m very curious to hear what you guys think about these rumors let me know your thoughts in the comment section below and if you want a shout out again just comment down below I’ll give you a shout
