Arriving in Toronto after a stint as quick as it was disappointing with the Pacers, Bruce Brown was never able to confirm the high expectations placed on him following Denver’s title in 2023. He nevertheless remains a name that intrigues certain franchises, and the Raptors want capitalize on this. Upcoming transfer?
It’s difficult to imagine a more complex trajectory than that of Bruce Brown after winning an NBA title. A nice contract won thanks to a major importance in the success of the Nuggets in 2023, then nothing more. Half a season at the Pacers then a transfer for Pascal Siakam, Indiana could not miss the opportunity to offer Tyrese Haliburton such valuable help. So head to Canada, with the status of holder left in passing on the tarmac in the USA.
From ? The first season in Ontario was average, and to make matters worse, he underwent knee surgery which only made him return to play on December 30 for this regular season.
However, the picture is not as bad as it seems. His salary of 23 million this year (last) is a great asset to enter into a big big transfer. Weapon that Toronto could use to recover young players or Draft choices.
-Destination side? We obviously think of the Heat, who could use it as a piece to facilitate the exit of Jimmy Butler while recovering some qualities, particularly defensive. Also watch out for the Pelicans, who have a big contract to get rid of in the person of Brandon Ingram.
