What moves should the Raptors consider to improve chances of a deep playoff run?

Yardbarker argues that the Toronto Raptors need to upgrade at point guard and center to contend for an NBA championship following the official approval of the Kawhi Leonard trade. The writer contends that Immanuel Quickley plays more like a natural shooting guard than a traditional playmaker and suggests Toronto should explore trading him before the deadline.

The piece proposes potential targets including Jrue Holiday, Kyrie Irving, and Fred VanVleet at point guard, while identifying Holiday as the preferred low-risk option. The writer also recommends exploring center trades involving Jakob Poeltl, suggesting targets such as Isaiah Stewart, Daniel Gafford, or Sacramento Kings big man Domantas Sabonis.
