It's not a secret Dragic wants to play with Luka, I'm sure they talk all the time. So the Raptors can either pay $20 million to a guy who doesn't want to be there, until he gives them a small discount to buy him out, or they can cut a lot of salary this year and get a hometown guy as center depth.
I don't think it's just for the playoffs. I think Brunson is more of an undersized SG than a true point guard. Having a true play maker to run the second unit would be very helpful. Not to mention the way this team is currently constructed, they are totally screwed for any games that Luka misses. They really need that guy before the season starts.
