e impact on both ends of the court. Scottie Barnes has emerged as the team’s star player after the departure of Pascal Siakam and OG Anunoby. The 22-year-old forward has earned his first All-Star appearance and is quickly becoming one of the league’s best two-way players. As one of the youngest stars in the league, Barnes is a valuable asset for the Raptors, who need to continue improving their roster around him.
During All-Star weekend, Barnes should take advantage of the opportunity to recruit other top players to join him in Toronto. One potential target is Trae Young, who is rumored to be on the trade block. Although not a perfect fit for the Raptors, Young’s offensive prowess could help jumpstart the team’s struggling offense. Toronto also has the length on the wing to mitigate Young’s defensive issues. Adding another young star like Young to the roster could help the Raptors get back to contention and make a positive impact on both ends of the court.
