Raptors News: Bruce Brown Weighs In On Trade Deadline Rumors

Bruce Brown is well aware of the trade deadline noise.

The 28-year-old was at the center of trade discussions last season and now he is once again at the forefront of trade rumors ahead of the Feb. 6 deadline.

Brown is coming off his two best games of the season. He put up a season-high 17 points against the Milwaukee Bucks on Jan. 17. He then followed that up with 15 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists in a Toronto Raptors’ victory over the Orlando Magic on Jan. 21.

After the game, Brown talked about all of the trade deadline chatter that surrounds him, via TSN’s Josh Lewenberg:

“Last year was super tough. I was saying I didn’t care about it but I did… But now it’s part of the business…I knew at some point I was going to face this again…If it happens, it happens. If it doesn’t, I’m happy to be here.”

Since Brown arrived in Toronto, the Raptors have tried moving him. The Raptors were reportedly looking for a first-round pick for Brown at last season’s trade deadline but did not find a deal. They held onto to Brown and exercised his $23 million team option this past summer.

The Raptors are motivated to move Brown, however, if they can’t trade him, he could be a buyout candidate, per Jake Fischer.

The other option is the Raptors holding onto Brown until the summer and exploring sign-and-trade scenarios.

All arrows point to Brown’s departure from the Raptors. He’s a veteran piece that does not make sense for the Raptors rebuilding timeline. However, as Brown has proven in his last few outings, he still has a lot left in the tank and can be a valuable piece on a contender looking to make a run.

3 takeaways from Raptors’ comeback win against Magic

The Toronto Raptors erased a 21-point deficit to defeat the Orlando Magic 109-93.

Here are 3 takeaways from the game.
