\[Fischer\] The Raptors continue to be mentioned by league sources as a Poeltl suitor. Celtics appear to have gone quiet in their interest in him. Chicago looking like sellers.

The story itself doesn’t truly expand too much, just a question of whether this is any suggestion that the Raptors are still looking like buyers as opposed to a team like Bulls.
I suppose they can’t trade their first this year, right? That could be a problem if the Spurs keep pushing for firsts. You wouldn’t want firsts tied up until 2026 over a Poeltl deal.

I have a crazy idea. Get Poeltl and DeRozan back, then use them to trade for Kawhi
Poeltl doesn’t move the needle for this team at all sadly
Another guy who can’t shoot 3s misses fts and clogs the lane
Not the solution
I don’t really understand the move. He can’t shoot. It only really makes sense if we want to trade one of Boucher, Achiuwa, for a “true centre”.
I’d rather make room for wembanyama
