Raptors have top deal-maker ever in house: Masai Ujiri’s 5 best trades

Over their nearly 30-year existence, the Toronto Raptors have had a bunch of General Managers. The first was the wildly erratic Isiah Thomas, then Glen Grunwald and caretaker Jack McCloskey, mega-flop Rob Babcock, and Mr. Corporate, Bryan Colangelo. None has put together the remarkable record of our current grand fromage, Masai Ujiri.

We have a crowded field of successful trades to winnow down to five. I had no need of considering trades made strictly for salary-cap manipulation purposes, the most outrageous being the July 2017 dumping of Cory Joseph to Indiana for the rights to Emir Preldzic.
