The Toronto Raptors threw their hat into the ring in one of the most chaotic trade deadlines in NBA history. Their biggest move was the addition of former New Orleans Pelicans wing and 2019-20 NBA All-Star Brandon Ingram while managing to retain their young stars.
Toronto sent Bruce Brown and Kelly Olynyk to New Orleans with a 2026 first-round pick and a 2031 second-round pick. Ingram will come in as one of the Raptors' top scoring options, joining a young core headlined by Scottie Barnes and RJ Barrett.
He passed his physical to make the trade official but remains sidelined with an ankle injury. On Saturday night, Ingram appeared on Toronto's injury report ahead of their matchup versus the Houston Rockets on Sunday.
