The Raptors jettisoned one centre Wednesday and could add another by Friday in a pair of expected moves.
Toronto waived veteran Aron Baynes, hours before his $7.4-million (U.S.) contract for next season would have kicked in, and moved closer to locking up Canadian big man Khem Birch as the NBA’s free-agent season drones on.
Still unresolved, though, is the minutia of the deal that will see Kyle Lowry join the Miami Heat in a sign-and-trade package that will likely include veteran guard Goran Dragic and young frontcourt player Precious Achiuwa at least, a move that another of the principles confirmed Wednesday.
