The thing about trades, of course, is that both (or all) sides need to agree. Day’Ron may be perfect for the Raps, but what makes you believe that the Nets would be willing to part with him?
Those trades are too complex teams wont do that. One I was thinking of is a 3 way between Raptors, Pistons and Trail Blazers. Scoot Henderson is done in Portland he rumored to be gone soon and Portland is done this year they will be luck to make the play in they may as well tank. Detroit is desperate for a player like RJ and Ivey is just back but not getting minutes. I think the moment Scoot plays this year no one is letting him go the guy worked hard in the offseason he has a chip on his shoulder. I would look at
Raptors get Scoot Henderson, Donovan Clingan and Robert Williams,. Portant gets RJ, Mobo and Ochai plus Raptors 1st this year 2026. Portland then flips RJ to the Pistons for Ivey and Detroit's 1st. Raptors get their back up big, a shooting guard and Robert Williams is a top defensive player. Detroit gets that forward up front they crave and they only lose Ivey out of the lineup and he is hardly playing, Portland gets to tank and gives Hansen Yang lots of run and they have 3 first rounders in a stacked 2026 draft and have Ivey in the back court to replace Scoot.
The Dejounte/Santi/Sharpe trade would be a dream come true
Good fodder for conversation, but 10 players, 3 teams seems the max historically. Raps like their core, and DayRon would be a nice addition. Don't see Raps moving RJ. IQ yes, Abaji yes, Dick, maybe, and 905 Martin, yes, Aj Lawson maybe
Ayeee
RJ, shead and Dayron keep that physicality you are speaking of. They have said they wanted Grady, jakobe, CMB, mobo to add muscle. Some are possibly still growing so adding muscle takes years.
Sandro should take some mma or judo classes
Scottie/ Ingram and RJ had the Raptors at the 2nd best in the east. Why would they move on from what works? All three players play different from each other.
BI is a good piece for a contender. Scotty is the only untouchable on this team.
