The Toronto Raptors should look to be buyers at the deadline, as there are plenty of quality guards, Detroit Pistons veteran Derrick Rose among them, that can pack a punch off of the bench. Unfortunately for Masai Ujiri and the Raptors, the rival New York Knicks might end up beating them to the punch.
Rose has spent the early parts of this season as a reserve for a rebuilding Pistons team, averaging 14.2 points and 4.2 assists per game on 42 percent shooting.
