Toronto Raptors guard/forward Bruce Brown could be on the move again soon after splitting 2023-24 between Indiana and Toronto. According to Doug Smith of The Toronto Star, the Raptors will likely pick up a $23 million option on Bruce's contract and trade him before the 2025 deadline. There should be no storage of takers for a versatile player like Brown, who has proven himself at the highest level by winning the NBA championship with Denver last season. He moved to Indiana as a free agent a year ago but was traded to Toronto in the Pascal Siakam deal in January. Bruce averaged 10.8 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 2.9 assists in 27.9 minutes during the season.
Toronto Raptors guard/forward Bruce Brown went from key piece on a championship team to bouncing around multiple teams in the matter of one season. His tenure in Toronto was shaky as he never established a role on the team and bounced between the starting lineup, bench, and injury report. As of right now, it seems that the Raptors are preparing to pickup Brown's option which is worth $23 million next season, and then look for a trade partner around the time of the NBA Draft. If they find a trade they deem valuable for Brown, then that could mean signing Gary Trent Jr. to an extension after that, according to Doug Smith of the Toronto Star.
Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley, while speaking at his exit interview on Monday, expressed his desire to remain with the organization. The 24-year-old, who was traded to Toronto in the deal that sent OG Anunoby to the Knicks, averaged a career-high 18.6 points, 6.8 assists, and 4.8 rebounds in 38 games with the Raptors. But he will be a restricted free agent this offseason, so there should be interest from multiple clubs around the National Basketball Association. With that said, Quickley is figured to earn over $25 million on his next contract, although the Raptors will likely be more than happy to match any offers he'll garner as a restricted free agent.
Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley (adductor) will not play in Sunday's contest versus the Miami Heat. He will be sidelined during the final regular season game because of a left adductor strain. With Toronto's season coming to a close, they will turn their attention to building a better roster for next season, which Quickley will likely be a major part of. The 24-year-old guard was traded from the New York Knicks to the Raptors in the middle of the season, and his production boomed. He shined as a starter, averaging more than 18 points and dishing out over six assists per game.
Toronto Raptors guard/forward Bruce Brown (knee) will hop back into the lineup on Friday versus Miami. He's recovered from a right knee problem that kept Brown sidelined for Wednesday's contest against Brooklyn. Brown has averaged 9.6 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 2.8 assists with the Raptors since being acquired in January from Indiana. He can make an impact all over the court but doesn't really stand out in any area, which limits Brown's fantasy appeal.
