A Jonathan Mogbo trade is inevitable, right?

[hype_2004]

Cut and waive him, Mogbo is a dime a dozen player in every draft, undersized athletic players that can't shoot simply has no role in the NBA these days. I think his time is numbered, need to spend time in the Dleague and learn how to shoot.

Raptors should try and get the best player they can for a package of Agbaji and Mogbo and call it a day.

I just gave the trade checker a quick look, and I think you’ll be very disappointed in the range of players at that combined salary who would be anything close to realistic.

Best case scenario would likely be sending them with a few picks for a pending FA that the team doesn’t plan to bring back if we had a handshake deal to extend them.

Otherwise they would be filler in a bigger trade.

Absolutely zero teams are out there thinking “we’ve got this back end rotation player, but what we really need is Ochai Agbaji and Jonathan Mogbo.”

Does anyone on this board practice Patience? Even if we had 15 lebron James, not all of them are gonna play lol...

[PushDaRock]

he was projected to go 30-40 in the draft, its not a reach to have drafted him.

And he's exactly the mold of players raptors like to take

The tools are there, his defence is NBA ready. He needs more game time to improve his offence instincts and skills. SB had improved his jumper since the rookie season. If Mogbo can improve his shooting and become a 3&D, he will have a long career.


Right now he is on a minimal contract which is controllable. I would not just dump him to open a spot unless it is a significant upgrade. SB>>CMB>Mogbo. Mogbo is the 3rd PF and provides depth insurance.

I think the 3 pointer isn't going to come this season. Didn't see any development on that front since the summer and more importantly no more of a willingness to take it. But, his finishing did look much improved in the Summer League and Pre-Season, so there are some strides being made. It seemed like they wanted to shore that weakness up more rather than adding shooting this summer.

I haven't really been a fan of having him play the 5 so he's more of a 4/3. I really like his perimeter D, he has the potential to be a lockdown defender. His combination of strength, length and quickness is unique.

He's an end of bench player, every team needs one of those, not everyone is going to log minutes. I'm not sweating whether he stays or goes.

Dang. I wish we had Luke Kornet instead of Agbaji. He's shooting 79% and has 10 assists and only 1 turnover. Should've offered him the MLE. Spurs are 3rd in the West now.

lol 4 game sample size

We were not going to pay a guy like that 10m a year with our tax situation.

We also got Mamu at 1/4 of the price, so I don't get complaining about our backup C situation at all.

4 games plus the previous 2 seasons with Boston. Mamu has been great but I think could be a nice pairing with Kornet off the bench.

CMB doesn't play at all?

Yes, he is really good defensively, that is why I am against the idea of just dump him. Offensively he doesn’t need much to get spot up mins. Pick and roll, roll in, cut to the basket without the ball, hitting open jumper. Simple play nothing fancy.

He is playing 4 in the 905, Sarr plays center.

[CPT]

Kornet or Bitadze would be incredible returns for an Agbaji/Mogbo package, but I don’t think either is realistic.

I think Orlando might prefer dealing WCJ, but going by minutes played, they might prefer him to Goga.

[theonlyeastcoastrapsfan]

If you rank players by age, youngest to oldest, Mogbo is 9th. I really don’t think they have any expectations.

Actually it is up to himself, does he want to have a long career as a role player or be out of the league real soon.

[MoneyBall]

Imagine doing hockey lines by subbing 5 LeBrons for 5 Lebrons. And then 5 mins later, subbing those LeBrons for 5 other LeBrons. I know this has nothing to do with Mogbo, but would be insane lol.

[MoneyBall]

Cut and waive him, Mogbo is a dime a dozen player in every draft, undersized athletic players that can't shoot simply has no role in the NBA these days. I think his time is numbered, need to spend time in the Dleague and learn how to shoot.

He's an excellent switch defender. He'd thrive on a team with a "true" PG. He'd do great next to a Trea or LaMelo. He's definitely not a "cut and waive" guy unless he's like Delano Banton and has work ethic issues.

As long as Scottie’s with us, I think he’s got a Thanasis role here.

All 15 Lebrons would be unhappy and ask to be traded, explaining they are not given enough minutes.

I'd rather have that Tomlin guy on Cleveland and he was undrafted. Mobgo is just too small.

But everyone thought Agbaji was a part of the core after his hot shooting season...
