Gary Trent Jr. Could Be Leaving Toronto
2 years agoToronto Raptors guard Gary Trent Jr. is expected to opt out of his $18.5 million player option for the 2023-2024 season. The assumption is that the 24-year-old would be able to earn more per year in free agency. One team that has been listed as a possible suitor for Trent is the Orlando Magic. Trent is a 38.4% shooter from three, so it makes sense that the Magic would target him. Orlando struggled in offensive rating and were 24th in three-point percentage this past season. It's worth noting that Gary Harris has a $13 million team option for next season. It's possible that Orlando declines that option and uses that money to sign Trent this offseason. A move to Orlando would probably increase Trent's usage.
