3 Undervalued players the Toronto Raptors should go after on the trade market

No. 1: Moses Moody, G, Golden State Warriors

Corey Kispert can be a rotation player. Jae'Sean Tate can be a rotation player. The one trade target who should be on the top of the list for the Toronto Raptors is Golden State Warriors wing Moses Moody, who could be a long-term starter for the team once freed from his confines with the Warriors.

Golden State states verbally that they believe in Moody, but then turn around shove him down the rotation, often completely out of the picture. Last season he played in just 66 games, and nearly all of the games he missed were due to coaching decisions, not injury. Rookie Brandin Podziemski, the veteran Gary Payton II and struggling wing Andrew Wiggins were all locked into the rotation higher than Moody.

The problem is that Moody was awesome whenever he took the court -- not in a "hidden All-NBA player" sense, but he seemed to always make lineups better when he got to play. He took and made difficult 3-pointers, was active on defense and always knew where to be on both ends of the court. He needs to continue improving as a rebounder and is not a lockdown option defensively yet, but the potential is all there. He deserved twice the 1156 minutes he played last season.

If the Warriors don't value Moses Moody as a no-doubt rotation player, let alone as a starter, there is value to be had on the trade market. Could the Warriors take a protected first and get off of his salary compeltely? Could he be a part of a Jakob Poeltl or Bruce Brown deal? Moses Moody, part of the same class that produced Scottie Barnes, deserves a larger role, and the Raptors could be poised to offer him one.
