It is becoming clearer that the Toronto Raptors have to do something before this year’s fast-approaching trade deadline. They’re hitting new lows with each embarrassing loss after the next, and hopes of the playoffs continue to fade away. Selling a player like Norman Powell could help, especially with teams like the New York Knicks and Brooklyn Nets interested in him.

Powell, who’s having a career year due to his 19.5 points per game average, could drastically improve the fortunes of a competing playoff team.
