Really nice day for the Raptors... definitely injected a lot of upside into the bench. Not really much point in analyzing the depth chart now, might as well wait to see what happens with Brown/GTJ. But there is a glut of guards on the roster right now.
Quickley/Mitchell/Shead
GTJ/Brown/Walter/Agbaji
Barrett/Dick
Barnes/Vezenkov/Boucher/Mogbo
Poeltl/Olynyk/Chomche
(that would be 15 guys on standard contracts as it's rumoured that Shead's contract is a standard, and just Chomche so far on a two-way, with up to two more two-ways available).
And Barrett and Dick are both probably better suited to SG than SF. I suppose it wouldn't shock me to see them let GTJ and Brown go at this point, and then target some free agents like Naji Marshall and Jalen Smith.
Boucher's obviously not in the team's plans, but not sure it makes sense to trade him unless there's a team that wants him... Kings ended up giving up two 2nds to clear a similar amount of salary.
