The Toronto Raptors may not be as eager to splash the cash on a star point guard now that they ended up with the No. 4 pick in the 2021 NBA Draft, but there is still a chance they address the guard position in free agency rather than the draft. If they do so, former Los Angeles Lakers guard Dennis Schroder seems, on paper, like a fit.
While his numbers took a dip this season playing alongside LeBron James and Anthony Davis, and his performance in the playoffs against Phoenix was suboptimal for someone about to hit the free-agent market, he can provide enough stifling defense and quality scoring to get teams interested in him again.
