Raptors: Could keeping Goran Dragic help Toronto win in 2021?

The Toronto Raptors had to part with franchise legend Kyle Lowry in the early hours of free agency, sending him to the Miami Heat in a sign-and-trade agreement that brought back 2020 first-round pick Precious Achiuwa and veteran point guard Goran Dragic, who will be 35 next year just like Lowry.
Despite the fact that Dragic has averaged 16.2 points per game with an All-Star appearance, All-NBA nod, and Most Improved Player under his belt during the last seven seasons, the expectation is that the Raptors will move him elsewhere once the trade is completed.
