WOJ: Raps get Olynyk & Agbaji for 24' 1st Rd Pick, Otto Porter, Kira Lewis

[CoinTossRoss31]

Sheesh I had no idea Ochai was pick #14 in 2022.

If Masai likes him as a prospect I can't see how we can complain about giving up pick #29(weak draft 2024) and Otto (nothing) to get a serviceable stretch big and a late lottery pick in a stronger draft

[Oakvillehoops]

How many players do you want the raptors to draft this year??

We can’t bring new 5 players onto the team from the draft. Traded a useless pick.

[SharoneWright]

We now have 1 FRP this year.

[Mak]

But why?

They like Ochai Agbaji better than anybody they could draft with 30th pick?

[douggood]

only like it if Olynyk is flipped for 3 seconds etc. otherwise what are we doing.
acting like we are putting finishing touches on a championship level team.

[djsunyc]

we may have another trade lined up to get another 2024 frp in return.

[And1Skip]

A new friend for Gradey, though they did not cross paths at Kansas, Agbaji probably help recruit him.

[LoveMyRaps]

The 29th overall pick in a horrendous draft for Olynyk and Agbaji (a decent prospect) - why are people complaining?

[mintsa]

I just don’t like sending away FRP’s at this point. You never know how those would’ve panned out……

[MiamiSPX]

Still have #31, which I bet our FO prefers over #28.

[2019nbachamps]

This trade is essentially a 1st for Agbaji. Ignore all the other assets involved.

Not the case, Olynyk is a really nice fit here that could be brought back.

Olynyk is a UFA though so we could've just signed him in the summer. Agbaji is the real prize for Masai.

[brownbobcat]

We gave up a first?

I give up on Masai

[Hansari]

We likely flip Kelly for a second or 2

I think the fanbase is thinking in one direction while Masai is thinking in another

Don't we know our FO, we're keeping Kelly Olynyk, he's been a long-time Raps target



Overall, love the trade for us - I'm high on Ochai despite the age, I think he'll become a fan-favourite once he sees a sustained uptick in playing time.

its not about the trade
its about the vision/plan for the team.

[Duffman100]

A bit better than it's a last 1st.

I'd like Olynyk signed on a friendly 2-3 year deal.

[Yeezus_]

Huge Ochai Agbaji fan

Never watch the jazz, whats so special about him? Stats look pretty mid

Really strong defensive player, zero offensive game.

I suppose we need someone who cares about their own side of the court.

I mean his shooting isnt that bad this season but yeah hes a good defender.

[LoveMyRaps]

we may have another trade lined up to get another 2024 frp in return.

A few things being overlooked - this trade MAY make Poeltl expendable.
We also opened up a roster spot.

[Ganjamayne]

Ochai Agbaji was drafted 14th overall 2 years ago. So late 1st round pick for him makes sense. I don't know anything about him tho lol

[WuTang_OG]

Fischer was right yet again

[Airmiess]

Kelly at 32 i'm not sure, he has a good skill set but doesn't fit BBQ timeline.
Agbaji is probably going to be molded into a designated defender/POA defender.
