We’ll dive deep on some stats next week to figure out how helpful Ibaka will be (he’ll be great), but for now let’s take a quick look at just the trade mechanics and the impact on this summer.
The Trade
Toronto receives Serge Ibaka for Terrence Ross and a 2017 1st round draft pick.
(It’s the lower, or lesser, of TOR’s and LAC’s 2017 1st round picks.)
This trade is executed as a traditional simultaneous trade, meaning the Raptors and Magic had to follow salary matching rules.
