Don't worry, raptors dont need one for Poeltl lol.


True, they even gave up a major piece in Saric to get him too.


And thats how easy it is to fill the backup C spot loll.

Some solid moves by Denver. I hope they win the chip next season

Big valley! Happy for him, was bummed we didn't try and pick him up on the cheap the last couple of years. Him and Jak would've been a solid offence/defence rotation at C.

Val's going to be that guy who I thought retired 5 years ago, but is now on his 8th team.

That's Gary Harris for me, was shocked he got picked up by the Bucks. I thought he was out of the league.
