29. Toronto Raptors

For the first trade proposal, we will examine how the Toronto Raptors could add Kevin Durant to their squad.

With a roster already consisting of Kyle Lowry and Kawhi Leonard, the Raptors are poised for greatness. Throw in some great role players such as Danny Green and Serge Ibaka and this team is seriously scary.

Toronto has more than enough assets to throw a big package at the Warriors. Filling up a proposal with a promising two-way forward such as Pascal Siakam is interesting enough. Adding in Jonas Valanciunas, C.J. Miles and 2021 First Round pick should be all the Dubs need to pull the trigger on this exchange.

The Raptors would pair the greatest offensive player in the world (Durant) with one of the best defensive players (Leonard). This dynamic, along with Lowry running the point, would be absolutely killer.
