Toronto Raptors make official their intention to sign a top-tier NBA center
The Canadian franchise is determined to make a bold move in the NBA market to sign one of the two centers within reach.
Something big is brewing in Toronto Raptors, and management is willing to make an effort to accelerate the maturation process of the competitive project. Well-placed in the Eastern Conference, there is no reason to think they cannot compete for significant things this season already by signing Anthony Davis or Domantas Sabonis, according to NBA rumors.
There are reasons to be excited about the future of Toronto Raptors, as well as the present. The Canadians have found a truly promising young core, with competitive spirit and very notable skills to continue developing in an environment of maximum demand, as they can achieve if they maintain this level. Third in the Eastern Conference, they know they could be one significant trade away from fully engaging in the battle for more than just a token playoff role.
The position with the most room for improvement is the center. While Jakob Poetl fulfills and contributes on both ends of the court, adding an All-Star caliber big man would be a huge qualitative leap for the team. Therefore, they have already expressed their intention to compete for Anthony Davis and Domantas Sabonis.
One of the two will join Toronto Raptors in exchange for a trade package that could include RJ Barrett, the aforementioned Austrian center, and some additional pieces. In case neither of these stars ends up with the Canadian franchise, they are also considering the options of Daniel Gafford and Goga Bitadze, two players who would quickly adapt and offer intriguing performances in the paint at a significantly lower cost.
