#3 Vince Carter to the Nets
After failing to make the playoffs in the 2003-04 season, the Raptors were having a tumultuous offseason. That summer commenced with the firing of General Manager Glen Grunwald and the entire coaching staff, and the appointment of Rob Babcock and Sam Mitchell as the GM and the head coach respectively.

At the start of the 2004-05 season, Mitchell often benched Carter in the 4th quarter with the intention of instilling a new team philosophy, which the latter took obvious exception to. He demanded a trade to a winning situation, and these demands were met by the front office who dealt him to the New Jersey Nets in exchange for Alonzo Mourning, Aaron Williams, Eric Williams and two first-round draft picks.

Mourning never played for the Raptors, getting waived and moving back to the Miami Heat. Aaron and Eric Williams found themselves out of the league not long after, and the Raptors used up those draft picks on Joey Graham and Renaldo Balkman.
No, these two aren't in the league today either.
