A few minutes ago I got a Score alert saying Raptors were interested in Lonzo Ball. Not sure how I feel about it. Also, I have no clue what the lineup is going to look like now. OG and Barnes could be heading up an all defence front court. Somebody has to score though. Perhaps there will be a completely new team identity come November.

well, there has been some Siakam chatter...but I thought that would have happened during the draft... but if they moved him, maybe Barnes makes a bit more sense? I don't seem him as a 2, not in the NBA at least...
Suggs just made more sense to me if they were moving on from Lowry...now if they kept Lowry? That changes the calculus a little
I can't speak about Suggs and whether he liked TO or not, but kid is from Minnesota and eschewed the bright lights for Gonzaga (pacific NW)...
it will be interesting to track Suggs and Barnes though... Much like watching Coronato and Lucius...
