While the off-season has started for almost all the teams, the time has already come for the craziest rumours. Recently, two All-Stars have been cited and may well be available on the market. Big commotion to be expected in the East if the revelations are true…
In general, when the teams are not playing, the leaders are active. In the summer, rumors are always in the headlines and stars are often mentioned, the idea being obviously for all the franchises to strengthen themselves in view of the coming season. This year, we could therefore see huge movements to shake the NBA sphere.
Rumors are already swirling, and have been for several weeks now. Kyrie Irving’s situation is one to watch, just like that of Damian Lillard in Portland. We could also see Draymond Green being mixed up in hallway noise, and more recently still, Pascal Siakam and Fred Van Vleet have been mentioned. Brian Windhost ofESPN makes big revelations about the two All-Stars…
Siakam and FVV available on the market this summer?
We knew that things could change in Toronto during this offseason. Again disappointing when the workforce was promising, the Raptors have already ousted Nick Nurse, coach of the title in 2019. Brian Windhorst therefore recently said that this will not be the only big move, since the future of the two All-Stars of the team is likely to be widely discussed:
Speaking to people who have been in contact with the Raptors recently, the Raptors don’t seem to know what direction they’re going to take: whether or not they’re going to focus on re-signing FVV, extending Siakam and potentially making other workforce improvements. Or whether or not they will look to send FVV into a sign and trade, maybe investigate the departure of other players, be it Anunoby and Siakam.
The leaders of Toronto therefore do not yet seem certain of what their summer will look like, but one thing is certain: no place is guaranteed in this workforce. Despite Pascal Siakam’s best career season, the Cameroonian does not seem to be indisputable and could be one of the big attractions of the off-season. It remains to be seen what counterpart the Raptors will be able to obtain.
Among the potential teams interested, Portland may be at the top of the list. While the Blazers have made it clear they’re ready to trade their draft pick + Anfernee Simons, Siakam looks like the player they need. As far as Van Vleet is concerned, few rumors are circulating at the moment, but we suspect that the franchises will look into his file fairly quickly…
Like several franchises in the league, Toronto could soon start a reconstruction process. By letting Pascal Siakam and Fred Van Vleet go, the Raptors would give way to youth and thus launch a new cycle…
