Man, I'd love to get a handle on any of the Raptors' players. Obviously Siakam and Anunoby are studs, but also VanVleet could take THJ's volume 3-pt shooting role, being a better defender and playmaker, which would give us our 3rd ballhandler (better than JB IMO). Just gotta find a way to ship THJ out of here. Trent Jr could flourish and become the wing we need. Shoots the ball and defends at a good level.
Wood/THJ/Bullock/Hardy/'25 DAL 1st (top 4 protected) for FVV/Trent/Young ? Yes, both are FA, high risk but if we could re-sign them at 110/4 (FVV) and 90/4 (Trent) We have a very good locked core of:
FVV/Dinwiddie
Trent
Doncic/Green
DFS
X/Kleber
While only spending a pick, almost same team that made to WCF, but FVV instead of JB and Trent instead of Bullock. Probably needs a Powell/Young/'27 DAL 1st to grab X (defensive anchor/rebounder) to contend.

We just paid a whole lot of money to a guy that went 9-29 (31%) on FG and 3-20 (15%) 3-pt% in both our win or go home elimination games last couple of playoffs. SMH
