Teams that need to trade for Jrue Holiday: 1. Toronto Raptors

If the Trail Blazers wait a little while before trading Jrue Holiday, then the Toronto Raptors might be a good fit. Once Dennis Schroder becomes trade-eligible, the Raptors can start to build a package for Holiday centered around Schroder, Thad Young, Otto Porter, and Gradey Dick. You can add a medium size protected first-round pick if you want but this is a deal that makes sense for both sides.

The Trail Blazers would be able to get another young guard to fill out their bench, Schroder who could easily be turned into a second-round pick if traded to another team, and expiring contracts. The Raptors would have a starting-level point guard who would service their team without jeopardizing their entire future. For a team that wants to seem to wants to win-now without going all-in, this could be the move for them.
