Raptors rumors: What Toronto is ‘coveting' with No. 9 pick

The post Raptors rumors: What Toronto is 'coveting' with No. 9 pick appeared first on ClutchPoints. The Toronto Raptors struggled mightily last season, but the ping pong balls still were not on their side. The Raptors are now staring at the No. 9 overall pick in the NBA Draft despite coming off of a 30-52 season. Advertisement There are a lot of different directions that the Raptors can go in with that pick, even though they are going to miss out on the two biggest stars of this class in Cooper Flagg and Dylan Harper. Even the second tier of stars, such as VJ Edgecombe and Tre Johnson, are likely to be well out of reach for Toronto. Still, the Raptors have options at No. 9. They still need a center, and Duke big man Khaman Maluach is the top big man in the draft. Maluach has a small chance to slide down to No. 9, but the Raptors could also solidify the front court elsewhere if the 7-foot-2 freshman is off the board, according to Jake Fischer of The Stein Line. 'Duke center Khaman Maluach is largely viewed as the leading center prospect in this class,' Fischer wrote. 'And Toronto, sources say, is among the clubs that highly value the 7-foot-2 big man who played for South Sudan's national team in the 2024 Summer Olympics. 'The Raptors, though, have left various rival teams with the impression that they covet multiple centers at the No. 9 slot … meaning they might have another big man in mind should Maluach come off the board by the time Toronto is on the clock.' Advertisement Maluach's skillset makes him an enticing pick for every team. He has only been playing organized basketball since he was 14 and has already improved a ton in that time. He has shooting touch that he wasn't asked to use much at Duke, but he is a great two-way player who is an elite lob threat and good shot blocker with swtichability on defense. Even if Maluach is gone, there are a number of other intriguing center prospects that the Raptors can look at with the No. 9 pick. At the top of that list would be Georgetown center Thomas Sorber, who is a much smaller prospect who plays below the rim but has incredible intangibles and feel for the game for his age. The Raptors could also look to take a guard with this pick, but there are still options in the front court if they want to go in that direction.

RUMOR: What Jake Fischer is hearing about Kevin Durant trade pursuit

The post RUMOR: What Jake Fischer is hearing about Kevin Durant trade pursuit appeared first on ClutchPoints. The Toronto Raptors have spent the last two years under construction, focusing on the development of their fairly young roster rather than competing for Eastern Conference supremacy. Although Scottie Barnes, RJ Barrett, Immanuel Quickley, Gradey Dick and Jakob Poeltl form an intriguing core, most people assume that team president Masai Ujiri has been biding his time before pursuing a superstar. The time to strike may soon arrive. Advertisement The Phoenix Suns and Kevin Durant understand that a split is in the best interest of all involved and are moving toward a trade this offseason. Toronto is expected to make a play for the future Hall of Famer, as it tries to quickly reinsert itself back into the playoff picture. Considering the question marks swirling around the East going into the 2025-26 campaign, Ujiri may believe that one transformative talent can launch the squad into contention. However, such a player is not typically acquired without making a considerable sacrifice. Three specific members of this squad are emerging as possible trade candidates this summer. 'Sources say that the Raptors would be willing to part with either RJ Barrett and Immanuel Quickley for a significant roster upgrade,' NBA insider Jake Fischer reported on The Stein Line. 'Several league figures with knowledge of the Raptors' thinking have likewise asserted that they could show a willingness to move center Jakob Poeltl as well … provided that the trade in question brought back Durant.' Michael Scotto of HoopsHype also mentioned Barrett's possible presence on the trade market, noting that the Raptors are likely to 'gauge' league-wide interest in the Toronto native and former top-five draft pick. Raptors have much to consider One cannot ignore the risk of dealing away a big chunk of the starting lineup for someone who will turn 37 in September. Durant remains an offensive juggernaut — posted 26.6 points, 6.0 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 1.2 blocks per game while shooting 52.7 percent from the field and 43.0 percent from 3-point range last season — but he is not the future of the franchise. Advertisement Can Durant and Barnes successfully lead a talented yet unproven group that also includes Ja'Kobe Walter and Ochai Agbaji? Masai Ujiri would need to engage in some additional roster shuffling to position Toronto for a true turnaround. The No. 9 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft is an intriguing asset, but, as Fischer notes, it could be included in a swap for the Suns' No. 29 selection in a potential Kevin Durant trade. The Raptors have a tough balancing act to master. Competing in the present while also planning for the future is a risky undertaking that has conquered many executives in professional sports. Given the interest surrounding the two-time NBA Finals MVP, they may not have much time to figure it out.
