Toronto hasn't been shy about trading prospects.
I actually could see them swinging a trade for a star. Not sure who would be available. Atkins might finally feel pressure to kind of "save his job" too.
I dunno. It's a possibility. Not a huge chance of it happening of course.
It is harder to trade for star players with control in the expended playoffs era because like 27/30 teams probably think they can compete within 3 years.
I'm glancing at the list of 2027/2026 free agents and seeing basically nobody who is an obvious trade candidate (most stars are on competitive enough teams). Luis Robert is pretty much it, on the offensive side.
