The Toronto Raptors suffered a disaster of a setback this offseason after starting point guard Fred VanVleet walked away for NOTHING in free agency to join the Houston Rockets. He became the latest key player the Raptors lost to free agency and naturally became a very difficult player to replace with the Raptors also in a difficult cap situation.

As bad as this loss was, things could get even WORSE next season with the impending free agents potentially coming from Toronto. All-NBA forward Pascal Siakam is extension-eligible but not super-max eligible which leads to difficulties not only in trying to extend him but also in trying to trade him. Along with Siakam, OG Anunoby is a free agent at the end of the season and no signs are yet pointing towards anything being close to completed for the small forward to stay in Toronto long term. There will certainly be a lineup of teams queuing up for the chance to land the coveted all-defensive piece.

So what are the next steps for the Raptors and how did things go so wrong that we have gotten into this situation with Masai Ujiri’s front office? Jacob Gramegna breaks everything down today on Amateur Hour Sports.
