Multiple teams offered *THREE* first-rounders for OG Anunoby

The Warriors were interested in OG Anunoby, yes, but other teams were ready to go all-in on Anunoby.

Toronto turned out to be buyers, not sellers, as they wanted to add a big piece (Jakob Poeltl) and keep the core together to make a solid run at the postseason. So many teams, along with their respected fanbases, were disappointed that they couldn’t get a deal done with the Raptors.

Bobby Marks said that half the league put in offers for OG Anunoby, but multiple team’s offers came public. Those offers being from the Grizzlies and the Pacers. Both teams were willing to part ways with three first-rounders in order to get Anunoby.

Here is what Zach Lowe said regarding the Grizzlies and Pacers:

“For instance, I’ve heard Memphis offered three first round picks for Anunoby,” said Lowe on his podcast. “But Toronto made it clear to these teams like ‘we want a player too.’ I don’t think that sort of player was on the table at least from their view at least in Memphis.

“Indiana, I heard offered three first round picks and the Rockets’ second round pick, which I believe they own in this upcoming draft. Which is almost like another first round pick.

“But again, the player chip wasn’t there for Toronto and they moved to fight another day.”
