Nets Were Close To Trading Nic Claxton To Raptors For First Round Pick

February 15, 2022 by Real GM

The Brooklyn Nets were close to a trade at the deadline with the Toronto Raptors involving Nic Claxton. The Nets have a surplus of centers in Claxton, LaMarcus Aldridge, Andre Drummond, Day’ron Sharpe and Blake Griffin, while they lack wings with size.

“I think one thing that happened at the trade deadline that I heard was that they were very close to a deal with Toronto that would have sent Claxton to Toronto for a first round pick and some protections on it,” said Zach Lowe on his podcast. “I think their intention was to sort of refit the roster by maybe flipping that pick for another wing, another shooter. Robert Covington’s name was mentioned. And sort of balance it out. That trade fell apart and Toronto went in another direction.”
