The NBA season has not been what the Toronto Raptors planned, as they are in tenth position in the East with a record of 15 wins and 18 losses. Many speculate that some important players could leave the team, such as Gary Trent Jr.
According to various reports, he is an appetizing piece for both the Los Angeles Lakers and the Golden State Warriors, teams that are fighting to make a trade with Toronto to receive the player’s services.
Where Will Gary Trent Jr. Play After The 2023 NBA Trade Deadline?
Toronto Raptors -200
Atlanta Hawks +600
Washington. Wizards +450
Chicago Bulls +450
Golden State Warriors +750
LA Lakers +750— Odds Shark (@OddsShark) December 21, 2022
Gary Trent Jr. is a priority for the Lakers. It should be remembered that at the beginning of the year they tried to reach an agreement with the Toronto Raptors, a team to which they offered Talen Horton-Tucker and Kendrick Nunn. However, the Canadian club refused to accept the offer.
According to several specialized portals, the Lakers could add one of their Draft picks to that old attempt, something that could change the negotiation.
The truth is that the hand of coach Darvin Ham will be in each of the movements to find the best scheme that allows them to be more competitive and reach a position in the postseason, something they did not achieve last year.
