3 most likely Raptors players to be traded at the 2022 deadline

2. Chris Boucher

While Boucher has been playing some of the best basketball of his career lately, his name remains in the rumor mill. An impending free agent at the end of the year, Toronto could include Boucher in trades to get something of value before a potential summer exodus.

With the Raptors being mentioned as a potential landing spot for big men like Jakob Poeltl and Robert Williams, just to name a few, giving up Boucher for both financial and competitive reasons might be enough to form the centerpiece of a very enticing trade package.

Chris Boucher could get the Toronto Raptors some nice assets.

Boucher is starting to become a weapon on the offensive glass while improving his 3-point percentage to a respectable 33% since the new year started. Able to defend multiple positions and hold his own in the paint, Boucher has emerged as the team’s Sixth Man.

Unfortunately, given the fact that all five of Toronto’s starters are under contract next season and the team is right up against the luxury tax, the odds of retaining Boucher aren’t as high as they were in previous seasons. If they sell high, they could get a pretty solid big man in return.
