More on this storyline
Josh Lewenberg: Jakob Poeltl is OUT for tomorrow’s game vs the Lakers with a left ankle sprain. He rolled it on Siakam’s foot going for a loose ball in last night’s game. Looked pretty bad but he played through it. -via Twitter @JLew1050 / January 8, 2024
Toronto, though, held firm, much to the dismay of rival front offices across the league. The Raptors had dangled each of Anunoby, All-Star point guard Fred VanVleet and All-NBA forward Pascal Siakam for weeks in the lead-up to the deadline, sources said, only for Toronto to send a protected first-rounder out the door and obtain center Jakob Poeltl instead. Then, the Raptors watched VanVleet walk to Houston in free agency and net nothing in return. And when the Raptors began this 2023-24 campaign far below preseason expectations — currently standing 12-19, good for 12th in the Eastern Conference — executives began to pinpoint Toronto as a main actor for this year’s trade activity yet again, as potential sellers of Anunoby, Siakam and veteran wing Gary Trent Jr. -via Yahoo! Sports / December 30, 2023
Josh Lewenberg: 15 5-man units have logged at least 175 minutes together across the NBA this season. Only 1 has a negative net rating: the Raptors starters. The Schroder-Barnes-Anunoby-Siakam-Poeltl lineup has been outscored by 2.8 points per 100 possessions (or by 15 points overall). -via Twitter @JLew1050 / December 22, 2023
