Washington Wizards Receive: Kyle Lowry, Aron Baynes, Stanley Johnson
Toronto Raptors Receive: Russell Westbrook, Alex Len
The Toronto Raptors are another team off to a slow start the season. They were expected to come in and contend in the Eastern Conference once again but that has not been the case. Russell Westbrook could be the missing link.
Toronto would also get Alex Len from Washington in this deal to help make up for including Aron Baynes to help make the salaries work. Len doesn’t make much of an impact, but he could be a stopgap until a more long-term solution comes around.
The Washington Wizards have a lot of work to do if they want to rebuild their roster. They will require Kyle Lowry in this deal, which would be a short-term option at the position. They would also land Aron Baynes and Stanley Johnson from Toronto.
Let’s take a look and see where this deal benefits both sides as they attempt to trend in the right direction.
