Ja’Kobe Walter’s recent slump is testing his place in Toronto’s plans and his value as a potential trade asset.

Writer Amos Caesar Mina argues that Ja'Kobe Walter's ongoing shooting slump is jeopardizing his future role with the Toronto Raptors and diminishing his potential trade value. Walter entered the starting lineup amid injuries to Kawhi Leonard, Immanuel Quickley, and Scottie Barnes, but his performance has dropped significantly during Toronto's recent stretch of games.
Over his last four outings, Walter is shooting just 28.2 percent from the field and 17.4 percent from three-point range. Mina notes that while other Raptors players like Jamal Shead and Jamison Battle are playing well, Walter could benefit from returning to the second unit once the roster gets healthy.
