The Indiana Pacers gave Bruce Brown Jr. an above-market deal last summer to reach the league’s minimum team salary. The team then turned his contract around ahead of the deadline to bring back Pascal Siakam from the Toronto Raptors.
The Raptors, who aren’t believed to be invested in Brown long-term, opted him into a second season at $23 million as a potential trade chip. Whether it’s a playoff team looking to add a wing with championship experience or another just looking to get out of a quality player with Brown’s salary ballast for a deal—look for Brown to be in rumors until he’s dealt or the deadline.
The Raptors could also look to move on from Chris Boucher, Jakob Pöltl and Kelly Olynyk. Unlike some teams still bottoming out, Toronto has the makings of a bright young core, with Scottie Barnes, Immanuel Quickley, and RJ Barrett. The team may have more specific talent targets than others, who may focus more on draft capital.
