As such, Jake Fischer argued that the Toronto Raptors are being viewed as a potential destination for the Lithuanian star out of the team's desperate need for a frontcourt enforcer in the wake of Jakob Poeltl's back injury absences.
"I'm told that the Kings do, however, still see pathways for moving Domantas Sabonis before Thursday's 3 PM ET deadline," Fischer wrote in his newest Substack report.
"Sources say Toronto remains the team most sources with knowledge of the situation see as a viable suitor for the All-Star big man. Jakob Poeltl's prolonged injury absence from a back issue, while the Raptors continue to battle for homecourt advantage in the first round of the playoffs, has created an even larger need for a frontcourt boost."
